Organizations of all sizes rely on their observability data to drive critical business decisions. Production Engineers across Development, ITOps, and Security use it to understand their systems better, respond to issues faster, and ultimately provide more performant and secure user experiences. But while the value of observability data is well understood, teams struggle to derive value from it.
Observability is the ability to see and understand the internal state of a system from its external outputs. Logs, Metrics, and Traces, collectively called observability data, are three external outputs widely considered to be three pillars of observability. Now more than ever, organizations of all sizes must employ the necessary processes and technologies to harness the power of their data and make it more actionable.
With an exploding volume of data and systems comes the need for observability, or the ability to understand the internal states of a system from knowledge of its external outputs. As a result, observability data's importance is at an all-time high. Businesses spanning every industry use it in various ways to respond to issues, increase agility, mitigate risk, and ultimately provide better experiences for their users. It’s an incredibly valuable commodity.
We’re excited to announce the general availability of the Mezmo Agent 3.6, which introduces Windows support to our Rust Agent. At the end of this blog, we’ll also highlight important updates to our Agent Deprecation schedule.

There’s a call throughout the industry to shift security left in the software development lifecycle, expanding the DevOps methodologies that have been growing in adoption for more than a decade. DevSecOps is based on the idea that security is not an afterthought. Rather, it is a collaborative process that must be integrated from the start of the development process.
Earlier this year Gartner published a report discussing OpenTelemetry and its place in enhancing Application Performance Monitoring (APM).
We are thrilled to announce that Mezmo has been recognized as one of the Top 20 Vendors for Managing IT Performance in 2022 by Digital Enterprise Journal (DEJ). This list was created in response to DEJ’s study, 24 Key Areas Shaping IT Performance Markets in 2022. DEJ analysts surveyed more than 3,300 organizations around a variety of topics to craft a comprehensive understanding of the state of these programs today.
As systems become more complex and distributed, the total amount of machine data put off by those systems continues to skyrocket. While teams may need access to an ever-increasing scope of machine data to gain insights into their increasingly complicated systems, that same need to access an increasingly large amount of data also creates cost concerns. Those concerns can grow into cost emergencies quickly.
