Welcome to IBM Instana Observability
Applications are the lifeblood of a business.  When applications are down or underperforming, the business loses revenue and poor customer interactions.  IT manage the increasingly complex set of hybrid and multi-cloud platforms that support revenue-generating, business-critical applications. Observability is a foundational component to IT’s success, and it transcends from technology stacks—business process to web / mobile to platform, cloud, and infrastructure, including the mainframe. Stay up-to-date on what’s new with IBM Instana Observability, including demo webinars, and feature releases, and expand your knowledge and technical expertise with our community blogs, forums, demos, videos and other learning materials.

  • News, announcements, and enhancement details
