Summary

Stream-based monitoring solutions are gaining popularity as they allow real-time troubleshooting and eliminate the need to store data that only needs to be used transiently. A new enhancement to Live Tail, a stream-based product, provides the ability to search, correlate, and perform analytics across all ingested logs for 15 minutes, giving users full access to the data needed during real-time investigations and time-sensitive analyses. This enables users to troubleshoot issues in their CI/CD pipeline, verify new deployments, and correlate directly between live traces and logs, ultimately providing a continuous, real-time stream of logs that can help engage with audiences effectively and troubleshoot time-sensitive incidents. The solution is designed to handle data at petabyte scale, allowing users to view and query all ingested logs without pressure to retain them.
