Observe announced the launch of Kubernetes Explorer, a new addition to its observability platform designed to simplify visualizing and troubleshooting for cloud-native environments.

Kubernetes Explorer enables DevOps teams, Site Reliability Engineers (SREs) and software engineers to easily understand disparate Kubernetes components, detect issues quickly, uncover root causes and resolve them faster than ever before.

Observe unifyies fragmented data across metrics, traces, and logs, providing insights that span applications, the Kubernetes platform, and cloud-native infrastructure.

"Kubernetes Explorer represents a leap forward in observability for cloud-native environments," said Jeremy Burton, CEO of Observe. "By leveraging Kubernetes Explorer and AI capabilities, we're enabling teams to cut through the complexity of Kubernetes and quickly pinpoint and resolve issues that would otherwise take much longer to troubleshoot."

Observe's AI Investigator tightly integrates with Kubernetes Explorer to create custom, incident-specific visualizations and suggestions, providing on-call engineers with an expert Kubernetes assistant while troubleshooting. Observe launched its new AI Investigator – based on an agentic AI approach – last month as part of its most significant product update to date, along with $145 million in Series B funding.

Additional Kubernetes Explorer features include:

- Kubernetes Hindsight: Provides historical visibility so teams can do retrospective analysis and performance optimization in ephemeral container environments.

- Cluster Optimization: Offers a visual map of workload distribution across the Kubernetes cluster, enabling quick identification of underutilized capacity and optimization of resources. This capability is crucial as the latest CNCF cloud-native FinOps survey found half of organizations overspend on Kubernetes infrastructure, primarily due to over-provisioning.

- Resource Descriptors: Delivers comprehensive visibility into full YAML configurations of Kubernetes resources, maintaining deployment descriptor history for easy version comparison.

Kubernetes Explorer is available to all Observe customers at no additional cost, reinforcing the company's commitment to providing comprehensive observability solutions without hidden fees.
