Last9s open-standards-based products improve Reliability in large-scale cloud-native environments. By providing visibility into the Rube Goldberg of micro-services, Last9 helps engineers focus on the necessary distractions of scale.
Today, there are only two choices for cloud-native monitoring: Open-Source Software (OSS) and Proprietary, vendor-locked in solutions. Running and maintaining an OSS solution involves expertise and toil. With a closed-source solution, customers have no say in how data is stored, retained, or used.
Last9 is open-compatible, and has managed control levers that put users in charge of their data. It also offers a Bring Your Own Cloud (BYOC) model for large-scale enterprises that regulatory and compliance challenges with regard to infrastructure.
More about Levitate
Levitate is a managed service with Service Level Agreement (SLA) guarantees and clawbacks for both Read and Write workloads. This eliminates the toil and upkeep of engineering teams to manage and scale an in-house metrics setup. Levitate also ingests data from multiple open standards, such as Prometheus exposition, OpenTelemetry Metrics, OpenMetrics, and InfluxDB.
Levitate can also segregate data into Virtual clusters, or Tiers, with distinct access control parameters like:
- Retention Limit – Limit the data that is available in the Tier—i.e. x months/days/hours.
- Concurrency Control – Limit the active number of queries the Tier can handle simultaneously. This is the most trustworthy indicator of Performance.
- Range Control – Limit the number of days of data allowed to be looked up in a single query. It directly impacts the number of data points or series loaded into the memory.
These control levers help rein cardinality, and almost half the Total Costs of Ownership around running a time series database.
