Use Case

Observability and Log Analytics

An observability platform collects, stores, and visualizes data like Logs, Traces, and Metrics to analyze a system's internal state. As the data volume increases and the environment becomes more and more complex, the following challenges rise.

Cost Efficiency

High costs for ingesting and storing vast data volumes, while keeping query performance, are a barrier set to rise with business growth.

Semi-Structured Data

JSON in logs and traces needs flexible schemas that also support high-performance storage and analysis.

Diversity and Openness

Diverse tech environments, from on-premises to multi-cloud, and rich ecosystems demand a more open and adaptable observability system.
