‘Tis the season to set 2021 goals. Whether setting OKRs, KPIs, KPAs, MBOs, or any other flavor of goal-setting frameworks in an endless sea of acronym soup, chances are that you’re still dealing with a sizable disconnect between business objectives and daily engineering work. Service Level Objectives (SLOs) have boomed in popularity because they provide a common language between business stakeholders and engineers to set aligned goals.
We’ve released support for tracing header interoperability in all of our Beelines. This means you can now mix and match distributed services instrumented with Beelines or with OpenTelemetry, and your traces will be preserved in Honeycomb!
You may have seen the Honeycomb white paper on metrics, and want to use the power of Honeycomb with metrics. Sending infrastructure metrics data to Honeycomb has always been possible, but with our focus on debugging the user experience inside the application, it isn’t the first or most obvious thing to do. This post will discuss why we use metrics in general and how to think about metrics in Honeycomb.
Today, AWS announced the AWS Lambda Runtime Logs API, a new way to easily send logs from AWS Lambda functions directly to your destination of choice. AWS Lambda Extensions, announced in October, provide the ability to run code in parallel that is independent of your function’s lifecycle. We’ve created an extension that utilizes the Lambda Runtime Logs API to send your logs directly to Honeycomb.
The new Honeycomb Kubernetes agent is out! This post describes how infrastructure metrics contribute to observability, and then walks you through the steps to start sending your own Kubernetes data into Honeycomb. Follow the steps to start observing your infrastructure in production!
