This article explains the differences between observability, telemetry, and monitoring, and how they work together to help teams understand and improve their software systems. It also discusses the benefits of using OpenTelemetry, a standard for creating and collecting telemetry for software systems, and Honeycomb's observability platform.
SIEM market is undergoing significant changes, with many vendors included in Gartner's latest Magic Quadrant report. However, amid the cloud transformation, vendor consolidation, and competition and integration with extended detection and response (XDR), the future is uncertain. The recent acquisition of Splunk by Cisco and IBM selling its QRadar software-as-a-service (SaaS) assets to Palo Alto Networks indicate that some big players are shifting strategies. Gartner Distinguished VP Analyst Peter Firstbrook suggests that IBM is giving up on SIEM and SOAR markets in favor of XDR, while Cisco is trying to figure out how to integrate Splunk with its XDR strategy. Many existing SIEM vendors will either be acquired, shift toward niche markets, or go out of business. Over the next 10 years, the SIEM market will transition to a few dominant players offering integrated platforms supplemented by specialized partner solutions.
Honeycomb introduces a new tool, Honeycomb for Frontend Observability, to enhance web application performance. The tool integrates OpenTelemetry instrumentation as an NPM package to collect and analyze Core Web Vitals data, offering actionable insights to improve SEO and site performance.
New Relic's Nic Benders discusses the importance of the Innovation Centre in Hyderabad, their vision for AI, the benefits of their technologies for Indian digital businesses, and more.
OpenTelemetry offers a standardized process for observability, but its functionality is a work in progress. Its usefulness depends on the observability tools and platforms used in conjunction with OpenTelemetry.

an open-source solution: Vizro as a template for a low-code dashboard, and Vizro-AI to build the individual charts with generative AI.
This article discusses causal inference, an emerging field in machine learning that goes beyond predicting what could happen to focus on understanding the cause-and-effect relationships in data. The author explains how to detect and fix errors in a directed acyclic graph (DAG) to make it a valid representation of the underlying data.
This article discusses the importance of empowering developers to take control over their applications across environments by adopting live debugging observability practices to reduce the disconnection between developers and their live applications in production.
The race to bring data into development is here. We see it in many ways, most noticeably in the increasing relevance of time series databases. InfluxDB, from InfluxData, is one of the leading open source time series database technology providers. The company is now partnering with Amazon Web Services to provide a managed open source service for time series database services.
