   SigLens helps save 90% of your observability costsWHAT DO CURRENT SOLUTIONS DO?To reduce observability costs current solutions do things as follows:1) Reduce retention.This gives immediate savings but it reduces the visibility and historical comparisons2) Dump majority of it in S3 and only keep important services logs in the observability systemThis also gives good savings. However it is a risky. During production outages, the logs from S3 are pulled into the observability system. This takes time and causes prolonged outages3) Segment logs into hot, warm and cold and use different system for each segment.This is fair enough approach. By segmenting necessarily different systems are used for different use cases. It does help in reducing the cost. The downside however is maintaining and building such systems. Quite often the burden is passed on to the users to rememeber to go to different systems for different segments.HOW IS SIGLENS DIFFERENT?SigLens has build a observability database from scratch that is 100x more efficient and several magnitudes faster than current solutions in the industry. With SigLens, companies can use one single system for all data types, reduce costs by 90% and also have lightening fast query response times. SigLens helps reduce your downtime.Below are 3 key innovations with SigLens Database:1) Dynamic columnar compressions:SigLens chooses a compression compression on a column based on the past 5 minutes of data and keeps adaptively changing it as the shape of the data changes. This helps achieve more than 95% storage savings with zero configurations.2) Dynamic micro-indexingMicro-index are like the database indexes, except they are 1/100th the size of an actual index. Using these micro-indexes SigLens can search/filter without uncompressing 98% of the data.3) Agile Aggregation Trees.These trees help answer aggregation queries at lightening speeds. These trees are built dynamically during ingestion.
