Hallo, München! 🇩🇪 We're only 1 week away from @PromConIO 2026, the biggest conference for #Prometheus fans! 📍 Google Offices, Munich, Germany 🗓️ October 7–8 We’re looking forward to connecting with the community, showcasing our latest innovations, and discussing everything from #metrics, #logs, and #traces to the latest in #OpenSource #observability. And don’t miss this talk: 🎤 Tracking Cardinality Explosions In Flight Presented by our Co-founder, @hagen1778, and Langson Zhang, Software Engineer at Roblox. 🗓️ October 8 at 12:15 PM CET hubs.li/Q04xbwlc0 This talk is about estimating cardinality in flight, while the metrics are still streaming in. The estimator runs as a separate pipeline alongside the storage, not inside it. A small estimator maintains a HyperLogLog sketch for each label dimension and publishes the results as standard metrics in the Prometheus exposition format. It receives data over remote-write and is scraped like any other target. There are no queries against storage, no new query language to learn, and nothing tied to a specific vendor, so any Prometheus-compatible setup can use it. 📌 Save your seat and come say hi in Munich. See you at #PromCon! 🎉 hubs.li/Q04xbwj80 #VictoriaMetrics #MonitoringSolutions #TechEvents #Prometheus

What if your alerts were based on anomalies instead of static thresholds?  In this short, @dianavtodea and Fred Navruzov explore how anomaly scores help build more adaptive, reliable alerts that respond to changing system behavior. Watch now 👇 hubs.li/Q04rZ0RN0 #vmanomaly #metrics #logs #traces
