ObservabilityCON on the Road: What to expect

Last week, we hosted ObservabilityCON 2024 in New York City. As in previous years, our flagship observability conference was a great opportunity for our community members to hear about all the latest updates to Grafana Cloud and the Grafana LGTM Stack (Loki for logs, Grafana for visualization, Tempo for traces, and Mimir for metrics), attend technical deep-dive sessions, learn from user success stories, and more.

Not to mention, it was a whole lot of fun. (Photos below.)

But we realize some of our users weren’t able to join us in the Big Apple. We missed you, and we also have good news: you can get all the goodness of ObservabilityCON 2024 with our ObservabilityCON on the Road events, coming to the following cities this fall:

A peek at the ObservabilityCON on the Road agendas

All of the things the community loves about ObservabilityCON — Technical deep dives! Live demos! Ask the Experts booth! — will be included in these special one-day events happening around the world.

Grafana Labs experts will present the original technical sessions from ObservabilityCON 2024, including:

• Instrumentation and ingestion in an instant: Demo of Grafana Alloy, Grafana Beyla, and OpenTelemetry
• Troubleshoot faster with unified application and infrastructure observability in Grafana Cloud
• AI/ML in Grafana Cloud: Saving toil, time, and money
• A user’s guide to Grafana Cloud’s end-to-end IRM solution
• Best practices for faster insights from your metrics, logs, traces, and profiles
• How to use synthetics, load testing, and real user monitoring to understand your end users’ experience

In each city, local observability pros will also walk through their real-world success stories and lessons learned along the way.

Overall, the ObservabilityCON on the Road events are a great way to deepen your technical expertise, connect with Grafana Labs experts and fellow community members, and get actionable advice to advance your observability strategy — all in a city near you.

We hope to see you later this year!
