At ChaosSearch search, we have a mantra. Keep all your data. Why? Because more often than not data has value has meaning certainly at some point in time and until that moment, it can look worthless, even chaotic without the right context. A perfect example is the Rosetta stone.

You can expect data pipeline challenges at scale. But you can also solve for it. Here's how.

The team wanted something simple that they could use with existing, low-cost storage options, such as Amazon Simple Storage Service (S3) buckets. Instead of implementing a massive volume of solid-state drives (SSDs) to write logs, the team needed a simpler and more cost-effective solution that would keep cloud infrastructure in place for availability and geo-diversity across markets. Today, ChaosSearch helps the team store and query long-term data at 0.1% of the cost of other leading technology stacks.
