Observe — not to be confused with Observe.AI — builds observability tools for machine-generated data that aims to break down data silos, useful for developers to understand how apps are working, being used, and potentially failing. The main use case for Observe today is to analyze data to troubleshoot when an application is not working as it should be. It’s very permissive.” The company today works with third-parties to enhance that work but he doesn’t rule out native applications in these and other areas down the line. “We see it as a lever to unlock new customers,” he said of the investment thesis of Snowflake Ventures.

Chronosphere, a startup that offers a cloud native observability platform, today announced that it has acquired Calyptia. “With observability data growing by orders of magnitude, companies are ill-equipped to manage the costs and scale of this deluge, forcing their teams to make trade-offs. Teams are especially challenged to handle log data which is prohibitively expensive to move and store,” said Martin Mao, CEO and co-founder of Chronosphere. Chronosphere also notes that it will continue Calyptia’s engagement with the open source Fluent Ecosystem. “Calyptia joining the Chronosphere team is excellent news for everyone who is invested in the future of open source cloud native technology,” said Chris Aniszczyk, CTO of the Cloud Native Computing Foundation.
