The Enterprise
OpenTelemetry Experts

We help enterprises design, build, and manage vendor-neutral observability — cutting costs, eliminating blind spots, and ending lock-in.

Sound Familiar?

Most enterprises hit the same walls when scaling observability. You're not alone.

Spiraling Costs

Your observability bill grows faster than your infrastructure. Telemetry volume doubles, budgets don't.

Blind Spots at Scale

As your systems grow, telemetry gaps widen. Critical incidents go undetected until customers notice.

Vendor Lock-In

Proprietary agents and formats trap you. Switching vendors means ripping out infrastructure.

Cutting Observability Costs by 40% for a Fortune 100 Retailer

A Fortune 100 retailer's observability costs were growing 3x faster than their infrastructure. Multiple vendor agents created duplicate telemetry, and engineering teams had no visibility into what was driving the bill.

  • 40% reduction in annual observability spend
  • Consolidated from 4 vendor agents to 1 OTEL pipeline
  • Real-time cost attribution per team and service
  • Zero gaps in critical alerting coverage

Now in Open Beta: MySQL, SQL Server, and Db2 Plug-ins for Oracle Enterprise Manager

Now in Open Beta: MySQL, SQL Server, and Db2 Plug-ins for Oracle Enterprise Manager

As of September 1, 2026, all three Integration Plumbers database plug-ins for Oracle Enterprise Manager are in Open Beta: MySQL, Microsoft SQL Server, and IBM Db2. Each one makes its engine a first-class target in the console you already run, collects with a read-only account over an encrypted connection, and ships thresholds and compliance rules that work on day one. Here's what each plug-in covers, what Open Beta means in practice, and the four steps to get a license key, install it against your own estate, and tell us what you find before general availability.

OpenTelemetry Doesn't Need More Heroes. It Needs an Institution.

OpenTelemetry Doesn't Need More Heroes. It Needs an Institution.

Mat Duggan's August 2026 spreadsheet found that 86% of merges in the OpenTelemetry C++ repository come from a single person, and that the PHP repository has merged 181 pull requests through exactly two people. That isn't a contributor shortage, it's a labor-model problem: the project is underwriting an institutional commitment with individual effort. Here are four fixes, each one already working in another open-source project: a pooled maintainer fund, real apprenticeships instead of contribution drives, support levels that describe capacity honestly, and maintainer-health reviews with a defined response.

Was That Query Always This Slow? The Query-History Gap in MySQL, SQL Server, and DB2

Was That Query Always This Slow? The Query-History Gap in MySQL, SQL Server, and DB2

Your database can tell you which queries are slow right now. It usually can't tell you which ones got slower, because the per-query numbers it keeps are a running total with no time axis: reset on restart, or evicted as a cache fills. Here's the query-history gap in MySQL, Microsoft SQL Server, and DB2, why SQL Server is the exception that proves the point, and why the trend belongs in the Oracle Enterprise Manager repository, including the unglamorous work of making the subtraction honest.
