The Adaptive Logs feature now provides per-service recommendations to optimize log management and reduce observability costs. Additionally, Grafana SLO supports more flexible, Grafana-managed alert rules, and incident management tools like Grafana OnCall and Grafana Incident have been updated with service account token authentication and more flexible labeling systems.
