Over the last few months, you may have noticed that many of our changelog releases mentioned the release of, and improvements to, Cycle’s native load balancer.

Every day, organizations face external threats as a consequence of exposing their services over the internet. An estimated 2,200+ attacks occur in a 24-hour period—or one attack every 39 seconds. Add the fact that an average data breach (one of many potential consequences of poor security) costs companies $4.45 million, and the need for strong security is impossible to ignore. Web application and API security is key to protecting your infrastructure, data, and users.
Large-scale organizations typically collect and manage millions of logs a day from various services.

Datadog Log Pipeline let you ingest logs from your entire stack, parse and enrich them with contextual information, add tags for usage attribution, generate metrics, and quickly identify log anomalies.
