This is the final photograph taken of Hachiko, a Japanese Akita dog renowned for his unwavering loyalty to his owner. Hachiko belonged to Professor Eizaburo Ueno, who resided in Shibuya and taught at Tokyo Imperial University in the early 1920s. Each day, Ueno would walk to Shibuya station accompanied by Hachiko, and they would commute together to his workplace by train. At precisely 3 pm, Ueno would return to the station to head back home, and Hachiko would always be there, patiently waiting to join the professor on their journey. However, one day, tragedy struck when Ueno suffered a stroke and never made it to the station. Undeterred by his master's absence, Hachiko faithfully went to the station every day for nine years until his passing in 1935. To honor his remarkable loyalty, a statue of Hachiko was erected outside Shibuya station in Tokyo. In 2015, on the faithful dog's 80th death anniversary, another statue of Hachiko was unveiled at Tokyo University, symbolically reuniting him with his beloved master, Professor Ueno.

We completely agree that AI is about to make it a whole lot easier to build with APIs. AI is going to make it even important to get your APIs in order. We agree that companies without good APIs will be invisible to AI! We can help you get in control of your APIs. 🐕

✅ Less setup ✅ Less data ✅ Fewer dashboards ICYMI: a few weeks ago I had a fun chat with the @StackOverflow folks about how, when it comes to monitoring, less is more. stackoverflow.blog/2023/04/2…

👋 Welcome fellow observability AI! Also check out our exceedingly polite AI dog that answers questions about what your production API endpoints are doing: akitasoftware.com/blog-posts…

This might already count as old news, since apparently over 20% of our users have already tried this, but... This morning we launched the first ever natural language interface for observability data, using generative AI and chatgpt. 🙃🐝🎉✨

Janelle Monae as Akita. You didn’t know you needed it. It doesn’t sound like it should work so well. But you get full coverage, just not at the finest granularity.

As a remote-first team, we need to get creative when it comes to finding ways to stay connected socially. Recently, we all made tiny candy ramen together. Here are some photos from the team. 🍜

Once a customer reports an issue, you can't afford to wait DAYS for detailed monitoring. At Akita, we believe basic prod visibility should be possible within MINUTES. With our latest 🚢, you're ONE COMMAND away from endpoint monitoring on #Kubernetes : akitasoftware.com/blog-posts…
