Unmatched expertise
Lightstep's founding team helped create modern observability at Google, and were founding members of the OpenTracing and OpenTelemetry projects.
How is Lightstep different?
Traditional approaches to application performance monitoring measure either symptoms or root causes. Lightstep's unique architecture integrates both, streamlining issue detection and resolution and fitting seamlessly into existing workflows.
Beyond sampling
Unlike traditional APM tools, which require upfront sampling at scale, Lightstep captures 100% of your performance data, 100% of the time.
Unlimited cardinality
Flexible tagging model means your team can group, sort, and filter along any dimension to pinpoint specific components and quickly understand service dependencies.
Instant insights
Lightstep automatically surfaces the relevant traces, logs, and metrics to quickly resolve an incident or understand a performance optimization. This means developers spend less time fixing bugs and more time building features.
