org.bouncycastle:bcpkix-jdk18on to 1.84 to address CVE-2026-5588.io.netty packages to 4.1.133.Final to address CVE-2026-44248.org.apache.logging.log4j packages to 2.25.4 to address known security vulnerabilities (CVE-2026-34477, CVE-2026-34478, and CVE-2026-34480).We are excited to introduce Sumo Logic support for the Krutrim Object Storage source. This integration extends S3 compatibility, enabling centralized observability across Krutrim and other S3-compatible storage platforms. Learn more.
We're excited to introduce support for handling log sources containing timestamps from multiple time zones using custom OpenTelemetry Collector YAML configurations. This enhancement enables you to parse logs from different regions within a single source file, beyond the default single time zone configuration available in Source Template settings. Learn more.
We're excited to introduce the Domain Controller Mode for Windows Active Directory (AD) event collection in OpenTelemetry Collectors. By setting discover_domain_controllers: true in your custom YAML configuration, the collector automatically discovers all domain controllers on the AD network, connects to each controller's event log, and begins monitoring events. Learn more.
In this release, we've added Winget (Windows Package Manager) support for installing, upgrading, and uninstalling the OpenTelemetry Collector on Windows. This streamlines lifecycle management on supported systems while maintaining full compatibility with existing installation methods. Learn more.
We’re excited to introduce the Status Overview panels on the OpenTelemetry collection page in Sumo Logic. These panels provide a centralized, high-level health snapshot of OpenTelemetry collectors, highlighting key metrics such as offline collectors, collectors pending upgrades, and remotely managed collectors without any configured sources.
Each panel is interactive, and you can click on them to drill down into filtered lists for fast diagnosis and resolution. Learn more.
We’re pleased to announce that OpenTelemetry collectors can now be installed using Docker. This enables you to manage and scale monitoring more reliably, and to ensure that collectors run consistently across any environment. Learn more.
