What is modeltime.resample?

modeltime.resample exists to keep backtesting working as tidymodels shifts underneath it.

modeltime.resample runs time series cross-validation over modeltime models, returning per-resample predictions and accuracy plots. Version 0.3.0 is the substantive release in view: tune 2.0.0 compatibility, deterministic seeding via withr, guaranteed .predictions output, and clearer failures when resample fits break. The three releases before it are dependency chores.

What is OpenObserve?

After its largest release, OpenObserve is patching the seams.

v0.92.0 landed on 7 August with 836 commits and three new product surfaces - synthetic monitoring, Workflows v1, and an expanded AI observability set - after a long RC series. The two releases since are small: v0.92.1 fixed alert HAVING clause typing and put the MCP server setup page on the OSS build, and v0.92.2 adds a compactor delay setting and backports an MCP 404 fix for deployments running under a base URI. The 0.91 line is still receiving its own backports.

modeltime.resample vs OpenObserve: editorial side-by-side

M0.0

modeltime.resample exists to keep backtesting working as tidymodels shifts underneath it.

◆ Current state

modeltime.resample runs time series cross-validation over modeltime models, returning per-resample predictions and accuracy plots. Version 0.3.0 is the substantive release in view: tune 2.0.0 compatibility, deterministic seeding via withr, guaranteed .predictions output, and clearer failures when resample fits break. The three releases before it are dependency chores.

◆ Where it's heading

Every entry here is compatibility work against something upstream — hardhat 1.0.0, workflows regression mode, then tune 2.0.0 twice. The 0.3.0 notes show a second concern emerging alongside it: making failures legible, with .notes on failed fits, actionable errors from unnest_modeltime_resamples(), and fallback logic when prediction columns go missing across versions. Reproducibility gets the same treatment through explicit seeding.

◆ Prediction

Expect the next release to track the next tidymodels breaking change, with any new work continuing on error reporting rather than resampling strategies.

6.3

After its largest release, OpenObserve is patching the seams.

◆ Current state

v0.92.0 landed on 7 August with 836 commits and three new product surfaces - synthetic monitoring, Workflows v1, and an expanded AI observability set - after a long RC series. The two releases since are small: v0.92.1 fixed alert HAVING clause typing and put the MCP server setup page on the OSS build, and v0.92.2 adds a compactor delay setting and backports an MCP 404 fix for deployments running under a base URI. The 0.91 line is still receiving its own backports.

◆ Where it's heading

OpenObserve is trying to become the whole monitoring stack rather than the storage layer under one. Synthetic checks, incident workflows, and SLO measurement each replace a separate tool, and incident ingestion from external alert sources hedges the migration path for teams that cannot switch all at once. The MCP work running alongside - open sourced, then given a setup page in the OSS build, then fixed for base-URI deployments - shows the same data being aimed at agent clients rather than dashboards.

◆ Prediction

The post-GA patches are still landing on the new surfaces, so expect another 0.92.x before feature work resumes - most likely hardening synthetic monitoring and Workflows, which are the two least-exercised additions.
