Driving continuous progress in observability technology!
The article explains how Alibaba Cloud’s Hermes observability plugin, built on OpenTelemetry, makes the entire execution process of AI agents visible by tracing reasoning steps, tool calls, token usage, latency, and security risks, enabling precise cost, performance, and error analysis.
The article analyzes current AI code agents such as Claude Code and Cursor, highlights their three major limitations—guessing relationships, staying within the code domain, and lacking a temporal dimension—and proposes UModel’s deterministic AST extraction and cross‑domain linking to create a native code knowledge graph that lets agents move from merely finding code to truly understanding its structure.
The half‑marathon race of over 300 humanoid robots highlighted three core operational bottlenecks—environmental uncertainty, hidden hardware‑software coupling risks, and outdated maintenance models—prompting a cloud‑native observability solution that combines metrics, tracing, and log governance to enable predictive, tiered fault handling for large‑scale deployments.
The OpenClaw CMS plugin 0.1.2 upgrades observability for AI agents by fully restoring multi‑round execution traces, stabilizing concurrent chains, adding STEP spans, and quantifying agent metrics, turning raw trace graphs into actionable insights for debugging, testing, cost control, and cross‑team collaboration.
This article details the design and implementation of a cloud‑native, real‑time monitoring system for Alibaba Cloud OpenAPI, covering background challenges, a Flink‑SLS architecture, multi‑region data processing, checkpoint and state‑backend tuning, source‑side predicate pushdown, visualization with Grafana, and production results.
This article analyzes the bottlenecks of real‑time AI voice agents in high‑concurrency scenarios and presents a cloud‑native messaging architecture built on Alibaba Cloud RocketMQ LiteTopic that ensures session stickiness, low latency, automatic channel management, and observable operations for scalable, reliable voice interactions.
A large multinational company migrated its multi‑cloud log pipeline from a fragmented AWS stack to Alibaba Cloud Log Service (SLS), achieving unified data processing, query, visualization and alerting while reducing total monthly cost by over 87% and gaining additional free storage and feature benefits.
The article explains how mobile network performance issues—especially long connection‑pool wait times—cause slow page loads in Android apps, demonstrates how to interpret Alibaba Cloud RUM’s Resource event metrics and timing data, walks through a real‑world case study with detailed stage‑by‑stage analysis, and provides concrete diagnostic steps and optimization recommendations for OkHttp connection‑pool configuration and other common bottlenecks.
This article examines whether AI agents operate under strict control by analyzing OpenClaw's attack surface, security incidents, session audit logs, application logs, and OTEL metrics, and demonstrates how multi‑source observability can answer who triggered actions, what costs were incurred, which high‑risk tools were used, and whether the behavior is fully traceable.
This article explains how to connect OpenClaw, a leading AI agent platform, to Alibaba Cloud Log Service (SLS) using the SLS Access Center, providing one‑click log ingestion, built‑in audit and observability dashboards, and detailed guidance for security auditing, cost monitoring, and troubleshooting across multiple data sources.
