About the Company

Honeycomb is the observability platform that enables engineering teams to find and solve problems they couldn't before. Honeycomb’s approach is fundamentally different from other tools that claim observability, and is built to help teams answer novel questions about their ever-evolving cloud applications.

Other tools silo your data across disjointed pillars (logs, metrics, and traces), are too slow, and constrain teams to only answer predetermined questions. Honeycomb unifies all data sources in a single type, returning queries in seconds – not minutes – and revealing critical issues that logs and metrics alone can’t see. Using the power of distributed tracing and a query engine designed for highly-contextual telemetry data, Honeycomb reveals both why a problem is happening and who specifically is impacted.

Every interface is interactive, enabling any engineer – no matter how tenured – to ask questions on the fly, drill down by any dimension and solve issues before customers notice. Powered by machine learning, BubbleUp enables you to quickly spot outliers that reveal the cause of hidden issues. Engineering teams can deploy confidently, resolve incidents faster and focus on high-value work that drives innovation.
