Let me set the record straight before anyone accuses me of bias or not being an OpenTelemetry supporter. Cribl loves OpenTelemetry! We’ve written lots of blogs about It; we have vendor-specific OpenTelemetry Destinations (with more to come!), and we support automatic batch parsing for easier data manipulation and re-batching for network transport efficiency of logs, metrics, and traces.

Ever wondered how many NetFlow exporters or edge routers you have configured on your core switches? What if I told you that every exporter uses ~0.2% bandwidth in overhead? While that may not seem like much (and it has been a few years since most network engineers were worried about CPU overhead for NetFlow exports), older hardware and network OS versions may be more sensitive to having multiple flow exporters configured.

Over the past year, I’ve noticed some interesting trends in my work with state and local governments. Across my conversations with organizations in this space, there’s a common thread: teams are getting creative about maximizing their limited resources. With budgets either flat or shrinking and operational demands increasing, these teams face tough choices. They’re being asked to maintain or improve services while working with the same, or in some cases, fewer resources than before.

Cribl Edge can send data to OpenTelemetry in several different ways. In this blog post, we’ll focus on the OpenTelemetry Metrics. In the blog, we’ll talk about Cribl Edge, but what we say applies to Cribl Stream, too! We will cover how to use Cribl Edge to collect Linux System Metrics, transform them into the OTLP Metrics format, and deliver them to an OTLP Destination.

Cybersecurity is moving fast, and if your security data management strategy can’t keep up with your growth, you’re already behind. Security operations centers (SOCs) today face mountains of data spread across countless tools and platforms. Combine that with evolving cyber threats, and you have an environment that demands a smarter approach to SIEM data management.

Recently, I have seen a trend of enterprises moving toward OpenTelemetry (OTel) for application tracing. Tail sampling, in particular, has emerged as a preferred approach to gain actionable insights while balancing data volume and cost. OpenTelemetry offers developers and practitioners the ability to instrument their code with open-source tools, moving away from vendor-provided tools for application instrumentation.

We’ve been steadily building strong momentum with Microsoft over the past year, and the latest step forward is a significant one: Cribl solutions are now available on the Microsoft Azure Marketplace. But why this focus on Microsoft Azure? The answer lies in what customers are prioritizing and discussing with us.

What worked for the last 10 years won’t work for the next 10. IT and Security teams face three big challenges with telemetry data: Volume: Telemetry data is growing at a 28% CAGR, while budgets remain flat. Compliance requirements demand retaining massive datasets, straining both storage and costs. Variety: Logs, metrics, traces, configs—telemetry data comes in all shapes and sizes, making it difficult for traditional analytics tools to handle. Your tech needs to manage this complexity seamlessly.

How do you get the data out of your infrastructure and applications in order to properly observe, monitor, and secure their running states while minimizing overlap, wasted resources, and cost? Many business folks need a broad category of tools in all their environments to solve challenges such as up and down monitoring, metrics, a time series database (TSDB), log analytics, event streaming, security information and event management (SIEM), user behavior analytics (UBA), and data lakes. The answer to the proposed question to solve these hurdles is using an observability pipeline.

Observability allows you to understand the behavior of applications and infrastructure from the data they produce.

Using Splunk for long-term storage can drive up costs and slow down searches, especially as data volumes increase and teams expand their use cases.

The observability market is changing quickly. Rushing into a monolithic observability product limits your future options by locking you in to a single vendor.

Route observability data where it has the most value. Slash costs, improve performance, and get the right data to the right destinations, in the right formats, at the right time.
Cribl is a company built to solve customer challenges and enable customer choice. Its solutions deliver innovative and customizable controls to route security and machine data where it has the most value. We call this an observability pipeline, and it helps slash costs, improve performance, and get the right data, to the right destinations, in the right formats, at the right time.
LogStream Gives You The Simplicity, Flexibility, and Control...
- To Route Your Data: Send data to the most effective destinations including low-cost storage locations like S3 for long-term retention. Route data to the best tool for the job – or all the tools for the job – by translating and formatting data into any tooling schema you require. Let different departments choose different analytics environments without having to deploy new agents or forwarders.
- To Reduce Your Data: Reduce as much as 50% of ingested log volume to control costs and improve system performance. Eliminate duplicate fields, null values, and any elements that provide little analytical value. Filter and screen events for dynamic sampling, or aggregate log data into metrics for massive volume reduction. Do all of this without worry: You can keep a full-fidelity copy in a low-cost destination and replay it back if needed.
- To Collect More Data: LogStream is the best way to get multiple data formats into your analytics tools. Use the LogStream universal receiver to collect from any observability data source – and even to schedule batch collection from multiple APIs. In addition, recall data from low-cost storage to replay logs to analytics tools for later investigations with ad-hoc data collection.
- To Shape Your Data: Shape all of the data you need to drive decisions about your environment. Translate and transform data from all of your sources to the tools you choose. Get a more complete picture of your data by enriching logs with third-party data. LogStream collects data from all of your sources and shapes it into actionable logs and metrics for analysis.
Cribl’s mission is to unlock the value of all your observability data, regardless of source or destination.
