One-Template Deployment

An ARM template provisions the Event Hub namespace and every resource needed, nothing built by hand.

Few-Click Log Routing

Few-Click Log Routing

Route Activity and diagnostic logs to the Event Hub in a few clicks.

One Query Layer

One Query Layer

Query Azure telemetry the same way you query everything else, no separate KQL skill set required.

Why Use OpenObserve for Azure Monitoring?

Automated Azure Setup

  • ARM Template Deployment

    Provision everything Azure monitoring needs without building it by hand. One ARM template creates the Event Hub namespace and every required resource.

  • Activity Log Routing Setup

    Start sending Activity Logs to OpenObserve in a few clicks. No manual resource wiring in the Azure portal.

Automated Azure Setup

Unified Log Routing

  • Activity and Diagnostic Log Routing

    Send Activity Logs and diagnostic logs to the Event Hub without building a custom pipeline.

  • AKS Cluster Correlation

    See Azure Kubernetes Service clusters alongside the rest of your Kubernetes estate instead of monitoring them in isolation.

Unified Log Routing

Cost-Predictable Ingestion

  • Flat-Rate Query Access

    Query your Azure telemetry without paying per gigabyte read. Log Analytics-style per-GB pricing doesn’t apply.

  • Columnar Storage

    Keep longer Azure retention windows without the storage bill growing at the same rate.

Cost-Predictable Ingestion

SQL and PromQL Querying

  • One Query Language for Every Cloud

    Query Azure telemetry the same way you query AWS, GCP, and on-prem data.

  • No KQL Required

    Keep using the SQL and PromQL skills your team already has.

Benchmarks

Measured against the platforms you are already paying for

Same telemetry, same workloads, one platform. Every number is OpenObserve against a named vendor - not an industry average.

  • vs. Datadog

    8×

    more cost-effective

    8x cost reduction means you can unify your observability into a single platform.

  • vs. Elastic

    140×

    storage efficiency

    140x storage means longer retention doesn't necessarily mean expensive bills.

  • vs. Dynatrace

    10×

    faster performance

    10x performance means dashboards and queries load in milliseconds, not minutes.

  • vs. New Relic

    30×

    compute efficiency

    30x compute efficiency means you index everything and don't have to compromise on sampling.
