Refine Your Observability Experience at Scale

Refinery, now generally available, is a sampling solution by Honeycomb designed to optimize resource costs and maintain data fidelity at scale, particularly for enterprises handling tens of billions of events monthly. By enabling users to focus on critical debugging data and discard unnecessary information, Refinery helps manage the immense data volumes that can otherwise overwhelm systems and budgets. It supports dynamic and tail sampling methods, allowing for flexible data management and cost control, with features such as dry-run mode and enterprise support included in Honeycomb's plans. Refinery, operating on user infrastructure, reduces network egress traffic and enhances observability without compromising data quality, as evidenced by user testimonials from companies like GOAT Group and Geckoboard. Honeycomb's broader mission aims to democratize production excellence, offering features like Debuggable Service-Level Objectives and secure data handling to all organizations, not just elite ones, and includes options for exclusive training and support to facilitate widespread adoption of observability practices.
