Managing observability costs at scale: A look at the latest cost management features in Grafana Cloud

The benefits of observability are clear: deep visibility into system health, faster troubleshooting, and improved reliability (to name a few). But what’s equally clear is that, as organizations scale and evolve their observability strategies, they need a way to tap into these benefits without runaway costs. According to Grafana Labs’ 2025 Observability Survey, 74% of respondents say cost is a top priority for selecting tools.

Distributed Historian Architecture with InfluxDB 3

From pipelines to warehouses, modern operations generate more distributed data than ever, with equipment and connected devices spread across factories, grids, and remote sites. A single, centralized historian can no longer handle this volume or distribution. Without change, organizations risk fragmented visibility, higher costs, and slower responses.

Choosing the Right APM for Go: 11 Tools Worth Your Time

If you’re building high-performance systems, Golang has probably earned a spot in your stack. Its speed, lightweight concurrency, and quick compile times make it ideal for scalable APIs, microservices, and distributed systems. But those same qualities that make Go powerful can make performance monitoring tricky.

APM vs Observability: Both-and, not either-or

I'll start this, the third and final entry in my series on APM and Observability, which was originally inspired by my contribution to an APMdigest article, by once again pointing out that APM tools can be built with observability in mind. Many are, in fact. And the ones that aren’t don’t turn into a different type of tool. In my experience, it's more that there's a difference of mindset.

The Rise of Agentic AI - From Assistance to Action

Enterprises are prioritizing digital transformation and agility, yet most lack the structural readiness for what's next. When 95% of financial services professionals believe there's little to no risk in delaying system modernization, even as the UK's FCA issued over £319 million in fines for non-compliance in just six months, it's clear many are mistaking surface upgrades for true adaptability.
