Introducing SmartBear Insight Hub: A New Era of Developer Observability

We’re excited to announce that BugSnag is now officially SmartBear Insight Hub. This evolution reflects the broadening of our capabilities beyond error monitoring to encompass full-stack observability with real-user monitoring, backend performance monitoring, and distributed tracing.

Ebpf For Tls Traffic Tracing: Secure & Efficient Observability

Tracing TLS (Transport Layer Security) traffic is crucial for modern observability systems. It helps monitor encrypted communication, diagnose issues, and optimize application performance. However, traditional methods like TLS proxying and packet capturing often come with significant performance overheads and security risks. They are not always the ideal solution, particularly for high-performance or security-sensitive environments.

Achieving Observability Goals: A Conversation with TestGuild

Last month, TestGuild’s Joe Colantonio sat down with two of SmartBear’s product wizards to discuss the world of developer observability and upcoming trends. Eran Grabiner is co-founder of distributed tracing tool Aspecto, which was acquired by SmartBear earlier this year. Right now, he works as Director of Product Management for Aspecto spearheading observability projects. Justin Collier is a longtime member of the SmartBear team and currently serves as Senior Director of Product Management.

AI Observability: Navigating Challenges and Unlocking Opportunities

Observability refers to understanding a system’s internal state by examining its external outputs, like logs, metrics, and traces. Borrowed from control theory, it’s the ability to infer what’s happening inside a system without direct access. To visualize observability, consider the human body. We don’t need to open it up to understand its internal state. By measuring external signals like body temperature, heart rate, or blood pressure, we can infer what’s happening inside.

Cloudera Observability - Financial Governance

Managing and forecasting cluster resource consumption costs is a complex task. Inefficient resource allocations and usage can lead to budget overruns and unexpected expenses. The challenge lies in gaining comprehensive insights into your resource consumption across different regions, departments, and user groups. It's also crucial for accurate financial planning. Cloudera Observability provides powerful financial governance capabilities to tackle these challenges effectively by providing unparalleled insight and control over your resource consumption and costs.

Build Enterprise-Grade AI Faster with New Multimodal Support, Enhanced Observability and More

At Snowflake BUILD, we are introducing powerful new features designed to accelerate building and deploying generative AI applications on enterprise data, while helping you ensure trust and safety. These new tools streamline workflows, deliver insights at scale, and get AI apps into production quickly. Customers such as Skai have used these capabilities to bring their generative AI solution into production in just two days instead of months.

What is Test Observability in Software Testing?

In software testing, it is our job to understand how applications behave in their real-world environment. With observability, teams gain a better view: not just detecting issues but understanding why they’re occurring in the first place. In testing observability, unlike traditional monitoring, which typically signals when things go wrong, observability focuses on why and where it happened so the team can optimize system health.

How Moesif API Observability Compares to Treblle

API observability plays a crucial role in making sure that your API delivers its fullest potential and consistency. Therefore, it’s important to choose the right tool for your observability requirements. In this article, we take a look at two API observability tools—Moesif and Treblle. We briefly discuss the key components of API observability. Then we dive into how Moesif and Treblle compare with each other.

Top Product Observability Tools to Boost Business Efficiency

As software systems grow more complex, ensuring reliable performance and delivering a seamless user experience becomes increasingly challenging. Product teams need the ability to track and analyze system behavior in real-time, allowing them to address issues before they affect users. Product observability offers a proactive approach, enabling teams to gather data, monitor system health, and make informed decisions based on a complete view of both infrastructure and user interactions.
