Summary

ChaosSearch has been named to the 2022 DBTA (Database Trends and Applications) 100 list, recognizing its unique ability to help teams maximize the promise of data lakes for cloud-based log analytics, agile BI, and product-led growth for SaaS applications via embedded analytics. Unlike traditional approaches that rely on complex Extract Transform and Load pipelines, ChaosSearch enables teams to activate their object storage, such as AWS S3 or Google Cloud Platform, to conduct log analytics at scale without data movement. This approach solves common challenges with data lakes, including the "data swamp" issue, by transforming data lakes like S3 into an analytic database that is cloud-native, simple to manage, and interconnected with known analytics tools. As a result, teams can generate insights in minutes, supporting diverse use cases such as DevOps analysis, agile BI, and log analytics in the cloud.
