Product news

Auto-adaptive thresholds for AI-driven quality gating
The Site Reliability Guardian automates the validation process for new software releases or changes. These validations involve setting specific performance, availability, or security objectives that must be met. For example, response time or failure rate thresholds can be used to define the desired state, warning range, or when an objective is violated. However, it can be difficult or even impossible to set these targets upfront for a new software component because it's unclear how the component will behave or what circumstances it will face.

New features and enhancements

Visualize and analyze distributions with histogram charts

Platform | Dashboards Platform | Notebooks

The histogram chart has been added to the available visualizations in Notebooks and Dashboards.

The easiest way to use the new visualization (and provide the correct response shape) is to use the DQL range function, which allows you to also adjust bin sizing.

For details, see Histogram visualization.

Zoom in to line/bar/area and histogram charts

Platform | Notebooks

Chart interactions within the line/bar/area and histogram chart allow you to zoom in and out of chart data.

View the owner of a shared document

Platform | Dashboards Platform | Notebooks

Hovering over the Shared icon of a shared document (notebook or dashboard) in the document list or sidebar now shows you the document's owner.
