An Intellyx Brain Candy Brief
Last9 provides a customizable control plane for correlating and interpreting multiple distributed sources of system and application observability data in order to meet reliability, visibility, and cost objectives.
Floods of high-cardinality telemetry data coming in from distributed cloud systems and clusters, services, and even devices such as cameras, microphones, and other sensors, then feeding into multiple observability tools, requires SREs and developers to really get their arms around complex logs and metrics in a way that a CDO or data scientist just wouldn’t comprehend.
With earlier awareness and context of telemetry data, the enterprise can ‘shift left’ its reliability engineering practices, while gaining a real-time indicator about the overall health of digital operations. There are utilization and cost metrics views of data flowing through the process as well, with value realized through ingest, compute, and storage efficiencies.
