"The Ascent platform from Apica is designed to provide a means to process, transform, enrich, and govern telemetry data prior to it being stored in an observability platform. This approach provides DevOps teams with the control mechanism they need to ensure only the most relevant telemetry data is passed on to an observability platform where costs are often determined by how much data is being stored."
"As application environments have become more complex, the amount of telemetry data being generated has exponentially increased. Fortunately, it has become easier to collect that data using, for example, open source OpenTelemetry software. However, many DevOps teams are now trying to manage massive amounts of telemetry data."
"A recent Futurum Group survey finds well over a third (36%) are planning on spending more than $1 million on observability in 2026, with 7% planning to spend in excess of $5 million."
Apica's Ascent platform version 2.16 introduces support for synthetic data, real user monitoring dashboards, and service level objectives. These updates enable better cost control for DevOps teams managing increasing telemetry data. The platform processes and governs telemetry data before storage, ensuring only relevant data is sent to observability platforms. A survey indicates significant planned investment in observability, with many teams facing challenges due to the complexity of application environments and the rise of AI coding, which may increase the number of deployed applications.
