In a bold move to tackle the mounting costs and complexity of application observability, DuploCloud, a leader in DevOps automation and compliance, has announced the launch of its Advanced Observability Suite (AOS). This new tool promises deep insights into application performance and infrastructure at a fraction of the cost typically associated with observability solutions.
“Observability solutions have been available in the open-source community for many years, but the key drawback has been the ability to manage the complex stack with in-house resources,” said Venkat Thiruvengadam, CEO of DuploCloud. “While SaaS-based observability solutions solved that problem, the pricing model is prohibitive. With the advent of Kubernetes and OpenTelemetry, the management problem of a self-hosted stack can be solved efficiently without paying the ‘SaaS Tax.’”
A Cost Revolution in Observability
Traditional observability tools often employ a SaaS-based pricing model tied to data ingestion volumes, a structure that frequently outpaces the cost of cloud services themselves. DuploCloud’s AOS aims to disrupt this dynamic by giving organizations fine-grained control over infrastructure costs, enabling adjustments in areas like storage, availability zones, and deployment footprints.
The platform, which integrates seamlessly with DuploCloud’s DevSecOps automation and orchestration suite, provides a turnkey solution for developers and operations teams seeking visibility across their application stack. From deployment to optimization, the AOS is configured during onboarding, ensuring organizations can begin deriving value immediately.
Capabilities That Deliver More for Less
AOS is packed with features designed to empower developers and IT teams with actionable insights:
Application Performance Monitoring (APM): Gain telemetry to identify bottlenecks, optimize performance, and meet service-level agreements (SLAs).
Custom Metrics: Define and monitor environment-specific metrics, helping organizations align KPIs with business goals.
Unified Troubleshooting: Trace and log correlations across distributed systems streamline root-cause analysis, uncovering issues traditional tools might miss.
End-to-End Visibility: Monitor every layer of the application stack, from the front end to back-end databases.
Real-Time Alerts: Use metrics and thresholds to trigger automated responses to system anomalies.
Custom Dashboards: Build tailored views for service health, user experience, and infrastructure performance with flexible visualization options.
Adoption in High-Stakes Industries
Organizations in regulated industries are already recognizing the value of AOS. Darma Muthiayen, CTO of Learn To Win, highlighted its impact on maintaining compliance and security:“At Learn To Win, we serve a diverse set of customers, including the Department of Defense and leading commercial companies. The DuploCloud Advanced Observability Suite has been instrumental in helping us maintain the stringent security and compliance requirements of these highly regulated industries.”
The suite’s ability to balance deep insights with robust security controls is particularly appealing for teams operating under strict regulatory requirements such as SOC 2, HIPAA, and PCI.
Streamlined DevOps for a Cloud-Native World
DuploCloud’s platform is known for simplifying the complex balancing act of speed, scale, and security in cloud-native environments. For many organizations, achieving these goals requires custom-built solutions—a costly and time-intensive endeavor. By automating infrastructure, security, and compliance, DuploCloud enables developers to focus on innovation rather than operational burdens.
Brad Fino, Senior Director of TechOps at Shasta Cloud, noted how AOS has transformed their workflows:“With DuploCloud’s Advanced Observability Suite, our team has been able to streamline operations and troubleshoot issues faster than ever before. The platform’s comprehensive insights and user-friendly customization options allow us to be proactive in managing our application performance and reliability across our cloud infrastructure.”
Bridging Performance and Cost Efficiency
DuploCloud’s entry into the observability space couldn’t come at a more critical time. As businesses increasingly deploy cloud-native applications, the challenge of monitoring these systems without breaking the bank has become a top priority. By combining affordability with robust capabilities, AOS is poised to set a new standard for observability solutions.
With its no-code/low-code automation and always-on expert support, DuploCloud’s Advanced Observability Suite isn’t just a new tool—it’s a reimagining of how organizations approach performance monitoring in the cloud era. For companies balancing rapid deployment with strict compliance and security demands, AOS could be a game-changer.
