First, we have identified additional copying by floragunn with respect to the separate, proprietary code base for our Kibana product.

If you’re handling sensitive information, dealing with data loss can be more than just a headache.

LogDNA is known and loved by developers for our lightning fast live tail and search.

Graphs allow you to analyze patterns and trends by navigating through your data over a period of time.
