Burden of ELK Metrics (already a happy logging customer)


Value we got from Sumo Logic

people needing VPN> Alerting based on searches did not

need ops hand-holding

> Increased visibility in system and application health

> Used in an ongoing effort with application and infrastructure changes in which we were able to reduce our monthly AWS bill by over 100%

Logs Metrics


Dashboards -- Tells you what's going on

●By building targeted per service dashboards we surfaced the relevant data to give our engineers a quick bird's eye view.

●By giving this we have been able to cut troubleshooting time in half by not wasting time gathering the relevant information from multiple sources/searches.

●We have dashboards for each application service including data stores for Elasticsearch.
