Splunk’s observability leader Stephane Estevez argued at KubeCon Europe 2026 that the industry’s reliance on sampled tracing hampers incident resolution and AI analysis. Splunk promotes a no‑sampling approach, leveraging economies of scale and its OpenTelemetry eBPF Instrumentation (OBI) to capture full telemetry without code changes. The company’s hybrid deployment options and open‑source contributions aim to reduce vendor lock‑in and address data‑sovereignty concerns. A recent State of Observability 2025 survey shows over half of IT leaders struggle with false alerts and tool sprawl.

Microsoft retired the Microsoft Deployment Toolkit (MDT) in January, prompting IT admins to seek new operating‑system deployment solutions. A Recast Software survey shows 99% consider OS deployment critical, yet 18% still rely on the now‑retired MDT or Windows Deployment Services....
