As an engineer who has set up logging for more than one deployment or environment, you know that you usually have one logging account per deployment. You’ve got plenty of pre-created queries, graphs, and alerts set up specific for your company’s use case, all of which are vital to you knowing the health of your infrastructure. Now imagine being responsible for creating and maintaining logging accounts across 10+ deployments.

MapR is an Apache Hadoop distribution that enables organizations to manage, analyze, and store all their data at scale. MapR handles a wide range of data types across infrastructures and locations by leveraging dataware, an abstraction layer in the enterprise software stack that separates data from any dependencies. We’re excited to announce that our new integration provides comprehensive visibility across all the moving parts of your MapR deployment.
