Reinventing Cloud-Native Observability & Monitoring: groundcover

Shahar Azulay, Co-Founder and CEO of groundcover, joins us today. groundcover is an observability solution built for cloud-oriented environments, offering a modern alternative to traditional monitoring solutions. It uses eBPF technology to monitor logs, metrics, traces, and Kubernetes events in one place, providing a comprehensive view of the entire system. The origins of groundcover stem from the founders' personal experiences with existing monitoring solutions and their desire to create a better alternative. The use of eBPF allows for granular and intimate insights into application behavior, simplifies deployment, and enables organizations to monitor their data without worrying about cost or data collection methods. groundcover's InCloud architecture separates the data plane and control plane, allowing users to store and manage their data securely within their own cloud premises. The platform also supports high scalability and offers intelligent ways to query data. groundcover plans to stay ahead of emerging trends in cloud-native observability by focusing on Kubernetes evolution and providing advanced querying capabilities. Future developments include running sensors in multiple environments and supporting high-scale log querying. groundcover's name represents the idea of covering the cracks in production and providing peace of mind to DevOps teams.
