InfluxDB 3.8 is now available for both Core and Enterprise, alongside the 1.6 release of the InfluxDB 3 Explorer UI. This release is focused on operational maturity and making InfluxDB easier to deploy, manage, and run reliably in production. InfluxDB 3 Core remains free and open source under MIT and Apache 2 licenses, optimized for recent data. InfluxDB 3 Enterprise builds on that foundation with long-range querying, clustering, security, and full operational tooling.

Artificial Intelligence for IT Operations ingests telemetry across logs, traces, events, resource signals, runtime behavior, and application pathways. AI for IT operations reduces alert noise, correlates events into unified narratives, predicts degradation, and drives remediation logic with pattern-based execution. Telemetry growth makes manual triage slow, while inference scales linearly with data.

Prometheus is one of the most popular open-source monitoring systems in the world. It’s lightweight, easy to deploy, and pairs beautifully with Grafana for dashboards and alerting. If you're running applications or infrastructure on Linux, Prometheus plus one of many Exporters (Redis, NVIDIA GPU, Nginx, etc.) gives you deep visibility into service performance - quickly and reliably.
