From production problem to proposed fix: Implement autonomous operations with Grafana AI

You've just finished a deployment, and though your service is up, you start to notice some requests are getting slower. To address the lag, someone—or, more likely, some group of people on your team—needs to watch the dashboards, decide whether the change matters, investigate what happened, and turn the findings into a fix. At each step you're gathering context—and often explaining that context again to the next person or tool.

What Happens When You Outgrow a No-Code AI Agent Builder?

A no-code AI agent builder can get a defined agent into production quickly. The risk appears when added branches, exceptions, integrations, and controls exceed the visual canvas. Organizations should look for a platform that lets teams extend individual steps with reusable code without rebuilding the agent or abandoning its governance.

Build better SLOs with RUM and synthetic SLIs

Well-designed service level objectives (SLOs) help you track the benchmarks your app needs to meet to deliver a successful user experience (UX). To track performance against these SLOs, many SRE teams are turning to real user monitoring (RUM) and synthetic monitoring for their service level indicators (SLIs), as these forms of data provide more direct measurements of UX than backend performance metrics.

We used our own product to cut our AI tooling bill without cutting AI usage

The problem: our AI spend was growing faster than our understanding of its ROI. Like most engineering organizations, Harness went from "a few people are trying out AI coding tools" to "AI tooling is a line item in the monthly finance review" in a matter of months. The cost itself wasn't really the problem.

Introducing AI Budgets: A Policy You Can Watch Work

AI Budgets turns an AI cost policy into a limit customers can watch hold in real time, so overspend gets caught within days instead of surfacing on next month's invoice. With AI Budgets, the Cost Management Agent turns your AI cost policy from a document everyone signed once and forgot into a limit you can see working. ‍ In our last post, we showed why 73% of organizations have an AI cost policy, but only 13% can tell whether it's working.

Telemetry Cost Management: Routing, Tiering, and Governance Without Blind Spots

TL;DR Cutting telemetry volume is only half of cost management. The other half is sending each signal to the right destination and storage tier, adjusting policies as traffic and incidents change, and rolling out every change in phases that teams can measure and reverse.

Certificate Lifecycle Management: How to Track, Monitor And Renew Digital Certificates

Certificate Lifecycle Management (CLM) is the process of tracking every digital certificate an organization uses, from the moment it is requested to the day it is retired. IT, infrastructure and security teams look into Certificate Lifecycle Management when they need to stop certificates from expiring unnoticed, keep up with shorter certificate lifetimes and know who answers for each one.
