AI root cause analysis in Elastic Agent Builder that cites its evidence
The new release failed at 27.2%, the old one at 28.2%, so the deploy was never the cause; the agent worked that out in 72 seconds and handed back a trace ID for the failure that was.
Drain Vercel into Elastic: serverless observability with nothing to install
A drain and an API key put Vercel logs, traces, and Speed Insights into Elastic Cloud, where you can follow a slow request from the edge to the Lambda function behind it.
LLM tracing in Elastic APM: prompts, responses, and token counts in the span view
In a twenty-call agentic trace, you can see which span is using the most tokens and read the prompt that caused it. Both live in Elastic APM, so there is no second tool to run.
Your AI agent needs an alibi: Observability and audit trails for Agent Builder in Elastic
Elastic 9.5 traces every Agent Builder run as OpenTelemetry spans in your own cluster, so tool calls and token counts are queryable with ES|QL. One workflow step adds the approval record, in a data stream the pipeline cannot rewrite.
AI agent observability for Microsoft Foundry: two env vars, no collector
Set up LLM tracing once and every model call, tool execution and handoff from your Foundry agent arrives in Kibana as one queryable trace, with token counts on each span and code for Agent Framework, LangGraph and Node.js.
OpenTelemetry Java extensions: customize traces without forking the agent
One JAR, loaded at startup by the OpenTelemetry Java agent, lets you filter health checks, rename spans, add resource attributes, and control sampling with no application code changes.
Kubernetes observability: SLO templates that turn alerts into error budgets
Two bad rollouts burned 88% of a 30-day error budget while the SLI still read 99.56%. This post adds four SLO templates that bring burn-rate tracking to the OTel-based alert rules from Part 1, no new instrumentation required.
Elastic Agent now runs as an OpenTelemetry Collector: Less memory overhead, zero config changes
Elastic Agent 9.3 sends logs, metrics and traces through one OTel Collector pipeline, running Beats integrations alongside native OTel sources in a single Fleet-managed agent.
Correlate logs, metrics, and traces in one ES|QL query
Walk through four investigations, from CPU saturation to pod memory pressure, each answered by a single query across signal types.
Android application monitoring with OpenTelemetry: distributed tracing from tap to backend
EDOT Android adds mobile APM to your Android app with one Gradle dependency: crash reporting, session tracking and distributed tracing visible in Kibana.
From CrashLoopBackOff to OOMKilled with PromQL in Elasticsearch and Kibana
Use PromQL in Elasticsearch and Kibana to move from a CrashLoopBackOff alert to OOMKilled, memory versus the limit, and a verified fix.
Skip writing alert rules: 6 ready-made ES|QL templates ship inside the NGINX OTel integration
Elastic integrations come with alerting rule templates, each one an ES|QL query with a threshold already set. Create Elasticsearch alert rules in minutes, tune them to your traffic, and catch silent data streams early.
