Summary

Imply Lumi is introduced as an innovative Observability Warehouse designed to enhance existing observability tools like Splunk by providing a cost-effective, high-performance data layer that allows for seamless integration without requiring workflow changes or data trade-offs. Lumi offers the ability to offload logs from Splunk, reducing storage costs while maintaining accessibility, enabling users to search and analyze years of data instantly without delays typically associated with rehydrating archived logs. The quickstart guide demonstrates how easily logs can be uploaded into Lumi, structured for immediate query readiness, and explored using familiar Splunk-style queries, all while preserving existing dashboards and alerts. This approach aims to provide Splunk users with full visibility, lower total cost of ownership, and a future-proof architecture that supports expansion across other platforms like Grafana or AI copilots, ensuring speed, scalability, and affordability in managing log data.
