The OpenTelemetry community and the contributors to the Java Special Interest Group (SIG) have spent a great deal of time integrating core Java technologies into the project. An integration that is particularly useful is Java Management Extensions (JMX).

AI and observability are no longer separate conversations—they’re deeply intertwined. Across keynotes, panels, and demos, speakers at Honeycomb's Observability Day San Francisco unpacked what that means for engineering teams today: faster insights, smarter tools, and new challenges to solve.

In April, I was given a chance that truly excited me: stepping in as the interim Director of Platform while my manager went on maternity leave. It wasn’t just a temporary assignment, to me: it was my first real taste of what it means to operate at the director level.

Canvas is an AI-guided workspace inside Honeycomb that combines an AI assistant with an interactive notebook for visualizing query results and traces. You can ask a natural language question about your data and Canvas will immediately start exploring your traces, through multiple queries and other tools, to find the right next steps.

Today, we're excited to announce the release of Anomaly Detection (currently in alpha), Honeycomb's proactive approach to understanding and acting on service health.

If you’ve been following my public journey with LLMs this year, it probably won’t surprise you to learn that this blog post is an announcement about the general availability of Honeycomb’s hosted MCP server. I want to share a few updates about what’s new in the GA release, discuss some interesting learnings from building it, and share examples of how we’re using MCP internally.

I’m a product engineer at Honeycomb. While my work spans the stack, I’m currently focused on deepening my frontend expertise. To support this, I’ve been using ChatGPT as a study assistant. It’s helped me break down complex topics with clear explanations, real-world examples, and—critically—interactive practice.

At risk of sounding too obvious, without an observability tool, it’s extremely difficult to reason about a complicated frontend system. Especially when hundreds of engineers are shipping code every day.

Observability tools like Honeycomb are built for engineers, not PM teams… but that doesn’t mean there’s no benefit to having your PMs in Honeycomb. Whether it’s debugging a weird customer issue or tracking how a feature is used in the wild, observability gives PMs something traditional product tools can’t: real-time answers with full context, down to a single user.
New Relic is a well-known application performance monitoring (APM) solution that helps engineers visualize, monitor, and troubleshoot their systems. As businesses evolve, engineers must deliver new capabilities at greater scale and speed, often while managing an increasing number of services and systems. This naturally raises the question: what tools can help?
We’re proud to announce an integration suite to help you monitor and understand your Claude usage and costs not just in Honeycomb, but in any observability tool that supports OpenTelemetry.

Traditional error tracking surfaces what broke. Honeycomb shows you why, and how to fix it. With Error Analysis in Honeycomb for Frontend Observability, now in public beta, teams get a streamlined way to investigate and prioritize client-side errors without writing a single query.

Every day I seem to run into yet another post with someone solemnly opining that “writing code has never been the hardest part of software engineering.
Katie Leonard
You don’t need to be a power user to get powerful results. I’m not training models or prompting GPTs into poetry—I’m just using them to do what great managers already try to do: communicate clearly, prioritize outcomes, and lead with intention.
If you’re unfamiliar with AWS Summits, these are conferences that occur on a yearly basis in different cities. The events are mostly used to announce new products and technologies. This year, the theme was AI, as evidenced by the keynote, a large majority of the talks, and a walk around the vendor floor.

Some people can get an AI assistant to write a day’s worth of useful code in ten minutes. Others among us can only watch it crank out hundreds of lines of crap that never works. What’s the difference?

I’m pleased to announce the public beta of Honeycomb Hosted MCP, along with our first wave of one-click integrations for Cursor, Visual Studio Code, and Claude Desktop.
OpenTracing was created to solve this problem by providing a vendor-neutral implementation to instrument code for distributed tracing. Over time, the community recognized the need for a broader, unified standard that went beyond tracing to also include metrics and logs.
