Problem
Operating a scalable observability platform based on open-source tools can be complex and resource-intensive, requiring specialized expertise for deployment, maintenance, and upgrades. Teams often lack the resources to build and maintain such systems, while also needing secure API endpoints, authentication, and TLS.
Solution
Opstrace provides an open-source observability distribution that simplifies the deployment and management of observability infrastructure. It packages and maintains open-source projects like Cortex, Loki, and Grafana, automating scaling, upgrading, and recovery. The platform offers features such as secure API endpoints with TLS and authentication enabled by default, multi-tenancy, and a unified user interface, reducing the operational burden and making open-source observability more accessible. Opstrace also provides integrations for collecting metrics and logs from Kubernetes clusters and cloud providers, simplifying data collection and visualization.
Target Audience
Opstrace targets DevOps engineers, SREs, and platform teams who need a scalable and secure observability platform without the complexity of managing individual open-source components.
