Deeper Integrations within self-hosted observability, remove gating
In this cycle, we focused on adding integrations with Kubernetes hosted with EKS within teams and self-hosted Grafana instances behind VPCs. We also emphasised on the website performance:
Upgrade on Playbook performance & Integrations
In this changelog, we discuss the 3 new added integrations, a Sandbox (which can be accessed without login) and slack integration to enable auto-trigger of a playbook.
More integrations & sample playbooks
This changelog mentions newly added integrations (Cloudwatch Logs, Clickhouse DB) and sample playbooks as well as improvements to playbook metadata loading time and upgrades.
On-Call playbooks Activated
In the last two weeks, key updates include the launch of On-Call Playbooks with metadata integrations for New Relic, Datadog, Cloudwatch, and Grafana, as well as executions for Cloudwatch Metrics, Cloudwatch Logs, and Grafana Panels. Additionally, an Alert Insights Slack App has been submitted for Directory Publishing.
Datadog integration LIVE & beta launch of Playbooks
The team achieved milestones including going live on Datadog Integrations and launching a private beta of Playbooks for faster issue investigation. They also integrated and supported Coralogix alerts on the Alert Insights dashboard.
A sprint full of Machine Learning and integrations
In the last 2 weeks, new features were launched including Google Chat integration, deeper integrations with monitoring tools, a Datadog integrations plugin, and alert enrichment for Datadog. Personalization was also added to the User Experience.
Alert Insights GA + Cancelling Playbooks
In this release, we discuss updates on the alert insights bot, including transitioning to a Native UI, upgrading the backend, adding intelligence for surfacing relevant insights, and new integrations with Google Chat Spaces and Sentry. The decision was made to not move forward with the playbooks feature, instead focusing on intelligent auto-diagnosis algorithms, API-first data fetching, and notification-led delivery.
Playbook generation v0.1
This changelog summarizes a concept prototyping tool that helps engineering teams automate investigations by writing playbooks in YAML format, connecting with Datadog, Cloudwatch, and New Relic APIs, and providing analysis on dashboards and Slack messages.
Alerts Insights updation
In this release, we added new features to Alert Insights including auto-identifying tags from alerts, mapping alerts to their sources, and real-time report updates.
