Cloud native architectures are churning out more data, increasing the cost of observability. But there are better ways to manage these expenses.

    I just read the article, it’s actually pretty interesting.

    The TL;DR is that there is so much observable data out there (exponentially more than expected), that Datadog, which isn’t optimized to deal with that, caused their prices to need to hike.

    There are two options listed as alternatives:

    1. Self host but it might not be cheaper
    2. Buy into a company that is from the ground up focusing on dealing with that massive amount of data.

      You mean you just read this advertisement?

      Then made a comment that sure looks like a 2nd advertisement for it?

      I hear Splunk is nice. I don’t see them having to place thinly veiled advertisements on social media.
