A tale of two incident responses: How our AI assistant found the root cause 3.5x faster

About two months ago, an incident at Grafana Labs was kicked off in typical fashion: A series of alerts were triggered, our on-call engineer acknowledged it on Slack, and the rest of the team quickly began hypothesizing about the potential culprit. But the way the incident was resolved was anything but typical. Yes, our internal team followed best practices to resolve the incident as quickly as possible.

What Is a Data Pipeline

In today’s tech world, IT and security technologies are the functional equivalent of Pokemon. To gain the insights you need, you “gotta catch ‘em all” by ingesting, correlating, and analyzing as much security data as possible. Data pipelines organize chaotic information flows into structured streams, ensuring that data is reliable, processed, and ready for use.
