Stripe's observability platform¶
Via InfoQ: learn about how Stripe Rearchitects Its Observability Platform with Managed Prometheus and Grafana on AWS. Great lessons learned!
re:Invent 2024¶
Just returned from Vegas where tens of thousands of folks showed up and almost as many announcements were made (well, at least it felt that way ;). For the o11y space, here are my recommendations: Observability the open source way (COP324) and What’s new with Amazon CloudWatch (COP381-NEW), which should bring you up to speed in less than 2h.
Ingesting JSON logs with OTel¶
Martin Thwaites of Honeycomb wrote about Ingesting JSON Logs From Containers With the OpenTelemetry Collector. A concise and hands-on guide. Thank you!
OpenSearch goes LF¶
TheNewStack has a really interesting interview with my colleague Anandhi Bumstead on the topic of OpenSearch: How the Project Went From Fork to Foundation.
