BigPanda announced new Data Engineering capabilities that empowers enterprise DevOps and ITOps teams to unlock the full value of their monitoring and observability tools and get started on their AIOps journey.
A newer and simpler way to ingest data from multiple disparate sources, BigPanda’s Data Engineering capabilities transform event data output into high-quality, actionable alerts.
“Despite investing in several best-of-breed observability and monitoring tools, most organizations struggle to extract actionable intelligence from their event data to help their incident responders prevent and resolve outages,” said Fred Koopmans, Chief Product Officer at BigPanda. “By converting millions of events from monitoring and observability tools into actionable alerts, our new Data Engineering capabilities help organizations unlock the full value of their monitoring and observability investments and lay the foundation for successful AIOps adoption.”
“The amount of email alerts we received prior to working with BigPanda was unsustainable for us to properly escalate and triage incidents,” said Michael Lorenzo, senior director of operations for the global NOC at FreeWheel. “BigPanda’s data engineering capabilities helped us quickly cut out excess noise to better detect incidents and uncover probable root cause in real time. Ultimately, we were able to reduce email alerts by more than 90%.”
BigPanda’s Data Engineering capabilities include:
■ Easy integrations: More than 50 native low-code integrations, including integrations with leading observability, monitoring, IT service management, and IT operations management tools. There is no need for complex custom code to make it easy to ingest event data from any monitoring or observability tool.
■ Normalization: Standardization of disparate monitoring event formats into a common format that makes it easy to perform cross-source event correlation.
■ Seamless noise filtering: Out-of-the-box deduplication and noise filtering eliminate false positives and benign events. This helps teams focus on relevant events and reduce noise by up to 98%. In addition, a preview capability makes it easy to build and test new filter patterns based on alert metadata and enrichment tags.
■ Enrichment at scale: Enriched events include contextual data such as location, host, or affected services that increase the quality of alerts. Organizations can better realize the value provided by their monitoring and observability tools.
■ Unified visibility: Presenting higher-quality alerts from various monitoring and observability sources as part of a first pane of glass inside in BigPanda eliminates the need for teams to switch between different tool consoles to identify problems.
■ Interactive dashboards: Dashboards showing how events are processed, make it easy for ITOps and DevOps teams to see the daily trend of number of events, the source of different events, and actioned incidents in a single place.

I've spent a lot of time in the channel, and one thing I keep coming back to is this: a partner program is only as good as what it looks like in the field. Many programs look great on paper, but when a partner is in front of a customer navigating a complex hybrid environment or trying to make the case for AI-powered observability, the gap between what a vendor promises and what it actually delivers becomes very clear, very fast ...
Enterprises today operate in a real-time environment where uninterrupted access to trusted data has become a baseline expectation for users, applications and automated systems. Traditional DataOps models, built on manual effort and human triage, cannot keep pace with this always active demand. AI agents are emerging as the operational backbone, ensuring consistent data availability, reinforcing trustworthiness and enabling a level of scale that manual processes cannot achieve ...
For decades, trust in the digital workplace rested on familiar signals. We trusted faces on video calls, voices on the phone, and emails that appeared to come from people we knew. These cues felt human and intuitive. They anchored how decisions were made, approvals were granted, and access was authorized. AI-powered deepfakes have quietly broken that model ...
Cloud migration was supposed to be a one-way door. For most enterprises, it turns out it isn't. Cloud data repatriation is a real and growing trend. A new survey ... finds that 89% of organizations plan to expand their on-premises infrastructure footprint over the next two years — and 75% have already moved at least some workloads back from public cloud in the past 24 months. The findings point to a broad rethinking of where data belongs ...
Over the past few years, large language models (LLMs) have revolutionized the software industry. Given their ability to excel at multi-step reasoning, LLMs have helped enterprises streamline workflows and adapt to the unknown. However, employing such models comes with sky-high costs, latency issues, and limited flexibility. In the realm of IT operations, it is generally wiser to employ smaller, domain-specific models instead ...
For years, DevOps teams operated under a simple assumption: collect enough telemetry, and you can find and fix any problem. That assumption is breaking down. Modern enterprises now operate across microservices, hybrid cloud environments, APIs, Kubernetes, and highly automated delivery pipelines. Releases happen continuously, dependencies shift constantly, and failures spread faster than teams can diagnose them ...
New Relic surveyed IT and engineering leaders from the media and entertainment (M&E) sector to understand what's working — and where challenges persist with their observability practices. The findings reveal how M&E organizations are navigating rising platform complexity, audience expectations, and AI-driven change. Below are five takeaways that stand out ...
Let me start with something I've seen play out more times than I can count. A team hits a wall with the cloud. Costs creep up, then spike. Performance starts to feel inconsistent. Someone in finance asks a simple question like "why did this double?" and nobody has a clean answer ... Maybe this isn't the right place for everything. That realization feels like a breakthrough, like you've identified the problem. In reality, you've just identified the starting line ...

In cloud-native systems, scaling is often as simple as moving a slider. For on-premise databases, the stakes are different. Over-provisioning hardware is expensive. Under-provisioning leads to performance bottlenecks that are difficult to fix once the equipment is in the rack ...
