Logz.io’s cloud-native observability platform is based on the leading open source monitoring tools that proliferate engineering departments in favor of proprietary alternatives. The company’s platform includes four core products: Log Management built on ELK, Infrastructure Monitoring based on open source Grafana, Distributed Tracing based on Jaeger, and an ELK-based Cloud SIEM. These products are offered as a fully managed, highly integrated platform to help engineers monitor, troubleshoot and secure their distributed cloud workloads more effectively.

The latest funding round brings the total capital raised by Logz.io to more than $120 million, including $74 million raised over the last 18 months. That amount of available capital allows the company to accelerate product development initiatives around AI and Machine Learning, expand headcount and propel go-to-market activities around the globe.
