Closing out Launch Week 7 with a bang! We're shipping ecosystem improvements to make OpenTelemetry easier to use than ever. Check out our 2 minute overview of the latest changes: https://lnkd.in/gqmv3x4n Today, we’re excited to announce big improvements to our SDKs, making observability seamless across your stack. From our Ruby SDK’s auto-capturing logs and traces for frameworks like Rails, to JavaScript’s enhanced auto-instrumentation, we’re simplifying your setup with instant insights. Plus, our new .NET SDKs offer complete visibility across full-stack apps. Also, a huge shoutout to our Highlight Ambassadors like Al Duncanson, who drive our community forward. Until next time; stay tuned for the next launch week! https://lnkd.in/gqmv3x4n

Good evening! It's day 4 of Highlight Launch week, and this one is particularly exciting. 🫨 📈 Zane Mayberry just shipped Anomaly Detection for all alerts in Highlight! Get automated alerting using the Prophet algorithm (https://lnkd.in/dxDwC6p) that will trigger when your metrics go out of spec. The algorithm is clever 🧠 enough to understand the seasonal patterns in your data, so you don't have to worry about false positives because of daily bursts in your traffic. Here’s how to use it: 1. First, define the metrics or events you want to monitor for anomalies. 2. Then, set up an alert to automatically trigger when these metrics deviate from normal patterns. 3. Lastly, you can set up notifications so that you can address these issues before they impact users. Check out our overview here: https://lnkd.in/g9FyChPF

Day 3 of Highlight’s Launch Week is here, and we're putting the 'fun' in 'funnels' . Funnels are a powerful way to track user journeys and conversions. Take a look at the launch video below or keep reading! With Funnels, you can visualize key product actions, track conversion rates, and spot where users drop off. Its perfect for identifying areas for improvement in your application! Here's how it works: 1. Select product actions you want to track. 2. Build a funnel to see how users move through those steps. 3. Identify drop-off points to improve engagement. Excited for everyone to start using the feature and sharing feedback :) https://lnkd.in/gTTtM79k

Let's keep the momentum going! It’s Day 2 of Highlight’s Launch Week, and we’re excited to announce Dashboard Updates! 🎉 We highlight exciting new features for enhancing your data visualization! Learn how to use variables to update multiple queries at once and set default date ranges for quicker access to relevant data. We’ll also cover time interval bucketing—hourly, daily, weekly, and monthly—for easy trend visualization. Plus, discover how to sort tables to quickly identify performance issues like slow APIs or SQL queries. These updates give you more control and make monitoring a breeze. Watch now to elevate your data monitoring experience!

What’s up world! It’s Day 1 of Highlight’s Launch Week, and we’re excited to announce User Event Analytics! 🎉 With this feature, you can easily visualize user events—whether it’s clicks, navigations, or custom events—to better understand how users interact with your app. 🔍 Ready to try it? Just pick session events, apply filters to focus on specific users, and create visualizations to track engagement. 📊 Check out the video here: https://lnkd.in/e2NgRPXu And explore the docs: https://lnkd.in/easn5-R8

We get a lot of questions about why you would use OpenTelemetry in the browser. It may not be obvious, but it provides some key observability data and connects your client and server to give you the full picture on what your users are experiencing. In true programmer fashion, we wanted to stick to the DRY principle and answer these question once and for all with a resource people can share. Check out our video response to learn more about OTeL's browser instrumentation and how you can leverage it to get meaningful insights on app performance, user behavior and more! https://hubs.li/Q02TFSHB0

Had an awesome time chatting with Han Wang last week on Signal & Trace! We talked about his approach to building Mintlify and how that's impacted their journey so far. Give it a listen: https://lnkd.in/exrjm_vd
