Migrating from Lightstep to Observe

ServiceNow Cloud Observability, formerly Lightstep, is approaching end of life. Looking for the best alternative? Migrate to Observe, an AI-powered observability platform engineered for scale.

Future-Proof Your Observability with Observe

Cost-efficient scaling

Ingest 100s of TBs of telemetry per day at 70% lower cost with Observe’s data lake-based architecture.

Fast, context-aware analytics

Correlate across logs, metrics, and traces for faster troubleshooting using context from Observe’s knowledge graph.

Increased developer productivity

Instrument code, investigate issues, and suggest fixes in a tight development loop with Observe’s chat-based AI SRE.

No vendor lock-in

Use open data formats like OpenTelemetry and Apache Iceberg for vendor-neutral data collection and sharing.

Observe is transforming how we approach software observability at Topgolf and Toptracer. The game changers have been the cost-efficient ingestion and the ability to tie telemetry data to a resource model that reflects our architecture. Observe takes pride in their technology foundation, and rightfully so.

During a period of explosive growth at Tekion, we realized our existing observability tools weren’t going to scale with us. We had tried major commercial and open-source tools, but both resulted in escalating costs and constant tuning efforts that drained engineering resources. Observe gave us a cost-effective unified platform for logs, metrics, and traces, with the ability to correlate across all of them. That visibility has been critical to maintaining service reliability while scaling aggressively.

Capital One is focused on building seamless customer experiences that make banking and commerce simpler and easier - whether those customers are digital or in-person. Like many cloud-first organizations, our data volume continues to expand. Observe provides a centralized and pre-correlated data layer that meaningfully organizes telemetry data from many sources at scale, helping drive faster response times.
