Website monitoring in the AI era: What's changed, what's fixed, and what your team should still be watching (opens on the source site)
AI-driven website monitoring doesn't wait for thresholds to break; it learns what normal looks like and catches drift before users do. Here's what that shift means in practice.

What's New with Monitoring in PostgreSQL 19 (opens on the source site)
PostgreSQL 19 is around the corner, and I will be talking about observability improvements at the upcoming PostgreSQL Conference Europe. I am also co-organizing the PostgreSQL Observability Summit as part of Community Events Day on the last day of the conference, Friday, October 23. So, I thought this was a good time to organize my thoughts in a blog post. Disclaimer: PostgreSQL 19 is still in beta as I write this, so some of the details below may change before the final release. The release notes will be the final word once 19.0 goes GA. With that out of the way, let's look at the PostgreSQL…

Building a Centralized Alerting Framework for Data Quality Monitoring and Incident Management (opens on the source site)
Before We Knew BetterAs our data platform grew, so did the number of pipelines, scheduled tasks, and data quality checks running every day.While Snowflake provided a reliable platform for storing and processing data, operational monitoring was fragmented across multiple systems. Data quality failures were often discovered only after downstream reports showed inconsistencies. Pipeline issues sometimes required engineers to manually inspect logs, query tables, and trace execution paths before identifying the root cause.The challenge wasn’t detecting failures — we already had mechanisms to…
How I Built Monitoring for My Home Solar System — And Why You Might Need It Too (opens on the source site)
Svitgrid dashboard: real-time power flow from PV to battery, home, and grid A few months into living with my home solar installation, I realized the apps shipped by inverter manufacturers were, to put it politely, unloved. Menus that read like Modbus register dumps. Graphs that took ten seconds to load. No clean way to share access with my family without handing out a password. So I started building my own — and that side project turned into Svitgrid, a solar monitoring platform that now ships on iOS, Android, and the web. This post is the story of how Svitgrid came together, the…
ClickHouse Monitoring and Observability Decision Points (opens on the source site)
Given ClickHouse’s ability to execute complex analytical queries across terabytes of data in a single operation, proper monitoring and observability is critical. Its distributed architecture and scalability add layers of complexity, as multi-node clusters require careful coordination monitoring across shards and replicas to ensure data consistency and availability. Adding to the operational pressure is users’ […] The post ClickHouse Monitoring and Observability Decision Points appeared first on Severalnines.

Heartbeats: How Synthetic Traffic Keeps Us RunningLet me take you on a journey of how we came to use heartbeats in our application design. It’s a happy story of love and no broken hearts along the way.What are heartbeats?What my teams have called heartbeats are a form of synthetic traffic generated by the application itself. The deployed application periodically generates heartbeats at a defined schedule.Heartbeats provide guaranteed regular traffic. In the cases I’ve used them, they have been low volume.
