Summary
This post introduces eight major updates to Cloudflare's observability platform: unified log investigation across multiple datasets (HTTP, firewall, Workers, Containers, R2, AI Gateway) with SQL and natural language querying; open beta for end-to-end tracing from edge to origin with sampling rates, trace rules, and OpenTelemetry export; a unified SQL API for agents and Workers to query all observability data; new unified pricing based on ingestion and storage volume; custom alerts on any observability data using SQL or anomaly detection; 30 days of retention for domain analytics; custom dashboards built from observability data; and Logpush availability on all self-serve plans.
