#OpenSearch #OpenSearchAmbassador #release

OpenSearchCon China 距离上海会议仅剩一周时间! 🇨🇳
#OpenSearchCon China is just one week away in Shanghai!
17-18 March @opensearch.org community comes together to discuss #OpenSearch, Apache Lucene, and #opensource #search, #observability and #analytics.

#OpenSearchAmbassador

310% throughput increase and 300% latency reduction!
Great work by the AWS #opensearch engineers with bulk SIMD brings these performance gains in @opensearch.org 's vector search 👏
And it's all #opensource under @linuxfoundation.org 🤩

GitHub - opensearch-project/agent-health Contribute to opensearch-project/agent-health development by creating an account on GitHub.

Try it out and let us know what you think. it's experimental and we want to learn together what would help agent builders best.

RFC: github.com/opensearch-p...

Building AI agents is easy. Knowing if they actually work? That’s the hard part.
We just released Agent Health, a new #opensource tool @opensearch.org that helps you trace every agent decision, evaluate accuracy & hallucinations, and track token usage & cost.
opensearch.org/blog/opensea...
#aiagents

You get APM traces, logs, #Prometheus @prometheus.io metrics, service maps, dashboards, alerting. Plus agent tracing, MCP support, and AI observability SDKs. All #opensource and vendor neutral.

And it comes with super-simple installation, so you can get hands on in just a few minutes!

📢 I'm excited to share that @opensearch.org has launched a dedicated Observability Stack!

As someone deep in both #OpenSearch and #observability, I think this launch marks a significant milestone: #OpenTelemetry -native #opensource platform for full-stack o11y

Interesting insights from Juraci Paixão Kröhling, member of @opentelemetry 's Governance Committee and co-founder of @ollygarden.bsky.social , hot off #OTelUnplugged

“If your collectors are tied to a specific backend, it’s not #OpenTelemetry anymore — it’s just telemetry”

With all the vision of open #observability behind OTel, is the collection layer still a lock-in risk?

📢 We have a Technical Advisory Group (TAG) for #Security in @opensearch.org!

The TAG already has diverse participation from AWS, @eliatra.bsky.social, Uber and Aiven.

#opensource #search #solr

ICYMI the OpenSearch Project has already added support for #Prometheus datasource, so you can query and explore those #metrics in #OpenSearch Dashboards (with #PromQL) alongside your logs and traces.

At last week's #Observability TAG meeting, we discussed a proposal for a unified UI within @opensearch.org Dashboards that displays alerts from @prometheus.io #Alertmanager and #OpenSearch Alerting side-by-side. Check out the RFC and chime in with your thought:

Check out the release blog by the Lucene PMC: lucene.apache.org/core/corenew...
And the full change list: lucene.apache.org/core/10_4_0/...

📢 Apache Lucene 10.4.0 is out!

✅ Many lucene queries should see a performance improvement of 10-15%
✅ A new scalar quantized format for dense vectors and knn search.

#Lucene sits at the heart of so many #search platforms, including @opensearch.org, that stand to benefit from this release.

Saturday morning I woke up to sounds of alarms. Grabbing the children from their beds and running in pajamas to the bomb shelter. Since then our lives have been swinging between these alerts on rocket, missile and drone attacks

Observability for AI Workloads: A New Paradigm for a New Era Lessons from 2025 and insights for building observable AI systems in productions

As #AI systems move into prod, I keep seeing the same pattern: traditional #observability isn’t enough. We’re no longer just measuring latency and errors — we’re dealing with model drift, hallucinations, semantic quality, token cost, non-deterministic behavior.
