The two companies agreed to join forces to provide leading-edge solutions for serving the critical needs of application delivery teams, across several all stakeholders, from development to IT Ops, DevOps, SRE and executive management.

“The world’s digital transformation landscape is changing rapidly. The complexity of online applications and large scale cloud infrastructure creates critical demands for the accuracy of data at scale, as well as the automation of manual monitoring work.

Founded by the team who built highly scalable systems at Amazon, BeeInstant has developed an advanced cloud monitoring solution to analyse high-frequency metrics in hyper-scale systems and applications running on the cloud.
