### AI overview

A comparison of six application performance monitoring tools, covering their capabilities for monitoring application performance, errors, dependencies, transactions, distributed tracing, telemetry, and root-cause analysis.

### Source excerpt

Releasing a well-tested app is just half the work. You also need to monitor how your apps are performing when real users start interacting with them. Delays in critical functions like login, checkout, or API calls can create poor user experiences. This is why continuous application monitoring post-deployment is essential. A study shows that teams [...]

### AI overview

This tutorial explains how Cribl Stream extends Amazon CloudWatch's native telemetry coverage for hybrid and multi-cloud environments. It describes normalizing logs from sources such as appliances, APM tools, home-grown agents, and Apache Kafka into OCSF or OpenTelemetry, then sending them to CloudWatch Logs for centralized querying.

### Source excerpt

Teams running hybrid or multi-cloud estates collect telemetry from proprietary appliances, on-premises Application Performance Monitoring (APM) tools, home-grown agents, and Apache Kafka streams that all must be parsed, normalized, and routed before it's useful. Amazon CloudWatch lets you collect logs from 60+ AWS services, 20+ third-party tools, and your own applications using CloudWatch pipelines, HTTP [...]
