July Product Power Hour Recap: Monitoring Your AI Workloads with LM
Overview In this edition of Product Power Hour, the LM team explored how LogicMonitor can be used to effectively monitor AI workloads across modern environments. The session walked through best practices for monitoring key components of AI systems—including GPU metrics, model latency, and infrastructure dependencies—using LogicMonitor’s platform. Attendees gained insights into real-world AI observability challenges and how LogicMonitor enables end-to-end visibility into the health of AI services. Key Highlights ⭐ AI Workload Dashboards: Demonstrated how to build dashboards tailored to AI-specific metrics, including GPU utilization, job runtimes, and inference latency. ⭐ Dynamic Thresholds: Discussed using anomaly detection to set smarter thresholds for variable workloads like training jobs and inference endpoints, helping reduce alert fatigue and improve model reliability by adapting to fluctuating usage patterns. ⭐ Unified Monitoring: Emphasized LM’s ability to consolidate data across cloud, on-prem, and edge environments—critical for hybrid AI infrastructure. ⭐ Alert Routing + Suppression: Demonstrated how to avoid alert fatigue by using alert tuning and dynamic suppression during scheduled AI retraining windows. Q&A Q: Can LogicMonitor monitor GPU metrics out-of-the-box? A: Yes, LM has native collectors and integrations to pull in GPU metrics from platforms like NVIDIA and cloud providers. Q: Is LM useful for model observability? A: While LM focuses on infrastructure-level monitoring, it provides context crucial to understanding model performance issues (e.g., degraded latency tied to resource constraints). Q: How does alert suppression work during model retraining? A: You can set up dynamic suppression rules based on job schedules or metadata to avoid false positives during known high-usage periods. Q: Does LM integrate with tools like PagerDuty or Slack? A: Yes. These integrations are supported and were demoed live during the session. Customer Call-outs 🌟 “I can now see infrastructure issues that were hard to diagnose before.” 🌟 "LM’s GPU monitoring capabilities have been helpful for managing cloud costs and performance.” What’s Next 📚 Badges and Certifications We’ve launched our new LogicMonitor Badges and Certifications program in LM Academy.

Next up in our series is Topology Node Grouping. This new feature allows users to dynamically group nodes in saved topology maps based on up to three levels of property metadata. By leveraging tags and labels stored as LogicMonitor properties, you can now organize your complex network maps into intuitive, property-based clusters. The groups are automatically color-coded according to alert status, providing an instant visual indicator of potential issues within specific node groups. So, how does this help you troubleshoot more efficiently? In complex network environments, identifying the severity level and location of issues can be like finding a needle in a haystack. Topology Node Grouping transforms this process, allowing you to quickly assess the 'blast radius' of any network problem. For instance, in a map of virtual machines, grouping by location could instantly reveal that all alerts originate from a specific data center. This level of clarity, which would have required extensive zooming and manual inspection in the past, is now available at a glance. By speeding up the identification of affected areas, Topology Node Grouping enables IT professionals to respond more swiftly and effectively to network issues, potentially reducing downtime and improving overall network performance.
