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

No Cliff, No Drama: Monitoring DB2 11.5 and 12.1, and the New Ground Ahead

No Cliff, No Drama: Monitoring DB2 11.5 and 12.1, and the New Ground Ahead

While MySQL and SQL Server admins spent this summer watching end-of-support dates, DB2 is a continuity story: 11.5 is supported into the next decade and 12.1's end-of-support date hasn't been published yet. Here's why that makes now the right time to fix DB2 monitoring rather than migrate it, what the DB2 Plug-in for Oracle Enterprise Manager closes that even IBM's free Data Management Console leaves open, and the ground on the roadmap in Db2 for z/OS and the 12.1 AI Query Optimizer.

Inside the OpenTelemetry GenAI SIG: The Conversations Shaping AI Observability

Inside the OpenTelemetry GenAI SIG: The Conversations Shaping AI Observability

The GenAI semantic conventions aren't handed down by a vendor. They're argued out in weekly public meetings and a Slack channel anyone can join, and the biggest open questions — evaluation, agentic systems, content privacy, and cost attribution — are the ones that decide whether your production telemetry is portable in three years. Here's where the debates are happening and how to walk in.

After MEM: The Next Chapter for MySQL Monitoring in Oracle Enterprise Manager

After MEM: The Next Chapter for MySQL Monitoring in Oracle Enterprise Manager

MySQL Enterprise Monitor reached end of life in January 2025, and Oracle guided customers to its Enterprise Manager plug-in as the path forward. Oracle has since published a deprecation notice for that plug-in through My Oracle Support. The MySQL Plug-in for Oracle Enterprise Manager from Integration Plumbers provides continuity: the same console, the MEM features the Oracle plug-in didn't include, and a collection layer built for MySQL 8.4.
