Talk to an Expert ›Observability is a broad topic that provides visibility into the key metrics powering customer-facing applications. These applications range from external facing applications ( e.g., Internet banking/online education/e-commerce/government records ) to internal facing applications ( e.g., Trading systems by brokers, Logistics controllers, Traffic Management, and Hotel Reservations). Observability also incorporates backend systems powering industries that ensure smooth operations of tools and processes. ( e.g, Mining systems powering the automation of mining equipment to the robots used at manufacturing facilities )
Irrespective of the use case, Observability gives you visibility through the collection of the metrics that are key to the health of your systems. These metrics give you real-time insights into how your systems are tracking. There are a lot of vendors providing observability solutions that help with the collection and analysis of key metrics together with logs, traces, and profiles.
The challenge is finding the right solution that caters to your requirements and at the right cost. Each vendor has its unique strengths and weaknesses. And, of course, there is the commercial cost involved with licensing, implementation, and continuous maintenance.
This is where Cribl Stream comes in to help optimize these key metrics and route the data to the right solution without needing to change the backend ( agents).
Cribl Stream has native integration with popular Observability solutions (e.g., Splunk, SignalFx, OpenTelemetry, DataDog, Grafana, Dynatrace ) as per Figure 1 below.

The vendor-neutral integrations that come with Cribl Stream allow you to:

Figure 6 – Replay Full Fidelity Data for Investigations
Lately, several changes have occurred in the observability market with acquisitions (e.g., Cisco acquiring Splunk, NewRelic & Sumologic acquired by Francisco Partners). The constant changes in the industry force a rethink of observability strategies to avoid vendor lock-ins and remove the commercial risks of being forced into multi-year contracts as a minimum spend. Some vendors have even included an unlimited ingestion model; however, you are still charged for storage costs in their SaaS model based on the size/disk types of storage allocated and credit utilization based on processing reads.
Open Telemetry (OTEL) has also seen a large customer uptake to avoid vendor lock-in. The vendors often customize the OTEL collectors to force users to route data into their respective platforms.
Cribl helps overcome these challenges through its native integration with popular observability platforms & also being the middle layer that helps you with migrations and efficiency. You can easily utilize your existing investments and connect to Cribl before routing to both your existing observability platform and future one too. ( e.g., Migrating from DataDog to Grafana Cloud/HoneyComb). With the Replay functionality, you can replay data from object storage to investigate your observability tool of choice without any restrictions.
