“Engineers today lack an easy way to track the tokens and prompt usage of their LLM applications in production. By using OpenLLMetry and Dynatrace, anyone can get complete visibility into their system, including gen-AI parts with 5 minutes of work.” Nir Gazit, CEO and Co-Founder Traceloop Why AI model observability matters The adoption of LLMs has surged across various industries, particularly since the introduction of OpenAI’s GPT model.

In this post, I will present a new Percona tool: Percona Monitoring and Management (PMM) Dump. The PMM Dump performs a logical backup of the performance metrics collected by the PMM Server and imports them into a different PMM Server instance. PMM Dump allows you to share monitoring data collected by your PMM server securely with the Percona Support team.

LinkedIn was able to dramatically improve the scalability and performance of its Espresso database by migrating it from HTTP1.1 to HTTP2, resulting in a reduction in the number of connections, latency, and garbage collection times. To achieve these gains, the team had to optimize the Netty’s default HTTP2 stack to make it fit their needs.

Now that we have understood the importance of cost models and how to create and refine cost models, it's time to start to optimize our workload components. Any workload deployment and architecture contains the key components that are depicted in the architecture diagram given below. All the layers of the architecture provide opportunities for cost optimization.

Without observability, the benefits of ARM are lost Over the last decade and a half, a new wave of computer architecture has overtaken the world. ARM architecture, based on a processor type optimized for cloud and hyperscale computing, has become the most prevalent on the planet, with billions of ARM devices currently in use. This growth was spurred by mobile ecosystems with Android and iOS operating systems, where ARM has a unique advantage in energy efficiency while offering high performance.

According to several sources we queried, more than 33 percent of the world's web servers are running Apache Tomcat, while other sources show that it's 48 percent of application servers. Some of these instances have been containerized over the years, but many still run in the traditional setup of a virtual machine with Linux. Red Hat JBoss Web Server (JWS) combines a web server (Apache HTTPD), a servlet engine (Apache Tomcat), and modules for load balancing (mod_jk and mod_cluster).

On July 26, 2023, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) adopted rules that require all public organizations to disclose any material cybersecurity incidents that they experience. The mandate also requires that organizations disclose overall cybersecurity risk management, strategy, and governance. The SEC cybersecurity mandate will go into effect on December 15, 2023, and cybersecurity organizations are still figuring out how to properly prepare themselves.

As teams moved their deployment infrastructure to containers, monitoring and logging methods changed a lot. Storing logs in containers or VMs just doesn’t make sense – they’re both way too ephemeral for that. This is where solutions like Kubernetes DaemonSet come in. Since pods are ephemeral as well, managing Kubernetes logs is challenging. That’s why it makes sense to collect logs from every node and send them to some sort of central location outside the Kubernetes cluster for persistence and l

Streamline privacy requirements with flexible retention periods Data retention is a critical aspect of data handling, and it’s not just about privacy compliance—it’s about having the flexibility to optimize data storage times in Grail for your Dynatrace use cases. Most observability solutions rely on fixed, default retention periods, or provide only limited configurability with pre-defined retention periods to choose from (number of days, weeks, or months), or require you to set up r
