Honeycomb Inc.

And then I fed it all of our historical incident reports.

And then I fed it access to Honeycomb, Datadog, Grafana, like whatever your tool is.

All the things.

And now... it's like paging the right person at the right.

So let's dive in.

Today, I'm with Charity Majors, who needs no introduction, but is the co-founder and CTO of Honeycomb.io. She pioneered the concept of modern observability, drawing on her years of experience building and managing massive distributed systems at Parse, which was acquired by Facebook, and Linden Lab, building Second Life.

She's the co-author of Observability Engineering and Database Reliability Engineering, and she loves free speech, free software, and single malt scotch.

Welcome, Charity.

And not doing that, having actual medication, has

changed my life.

I think, correct me if I'm wrong, there's so many details of the early days of Honeycomb that are pretty fuzzy in my recollection because I was literally sleeping every two to four days, but I'm pretty sure I picked a fight with you on the internet and we were like not friends for a while.

Most likely.

Just stick to the basics.

And we had Liz Fong-Jones from Honeycomb on stage, uh, yesterday giving a fantastic talk, um, all about their, uh, AI adoption journey.

Not big headline figures, but the specifics of how they got there, and that's the sort of content that this audience laps up and, and that's how you get in there-

Yeah

We're talking about an amount of data...

Humans can go in and ask questions, and if you look at, at, at sort of what Honeycomb has done with their agents, their system, you can go in and ask questions, and you'll be able to ask behavioral questions, right?

Mm-hmm.

But that's not the same as catching it and verifying that it's constantly doing the thing it was supposed to do.

...

it novel questions.

And Honeycomb, who I, I advise and work with, they do a great job at this.

If there are multiple companies doing this that can do this at scale and do it fast enough, talk to one of them.
