Honeycomb

Honeycomb is an observability platform that helps you get to the bottom of problems in your distributed services faster. It lets you deploy with confidence and resolve incidents sooner with unlimited custom attributes for debugging, and predictable costs that don't mean you have to sacrifice system visibility.

Honeycomb offers a number of features to help you debug more easily:

• Distributed Tracing: Combines logs and metrics into a single workflow so you don't need to juggle multiple tools.
• Intelligent Data Sampling: Saves you money without losing the data you need to debug.
• Debuggable Service Level Objectives (SLOs): Gives you a better idea of how bad an incident is by showing you the underlying event data.

The platform lets engineering teams quickly identify and resolve problems thanks to its proprietary database architecture that returns queries in seconds. Other features include:

• BubbleUp: Automatically compares attributes to show anomalies on heatmaps and query visualizations.
• Service Map: Shows interdependent components so you can ask more sophisticated questions about system architecture.
• AI-Powered Query Assistant: Creates and runs queries for you in plain English.
• Slack Integration: Unfurls Honeycomb graphs directly into Slack for better triage.

Honeycomb supports OpenTelemetry, which makes it easy to send data to the platform. The tool also has unlimited seats, so costs don't increase as your team expands.

With Honeycomb, you can improve engineering efficiency, make data-driven decisions and build high-performing engineering teams. The platform works for teams of any size, giving you fast and authoritative answers to complex questions. Pricing is based on event volume, so you know exactly what you're paying and there are no limits on seats or fields.
