Organizations are building data lakes and bringing data together from many systems in raw format into these data lakes, hoping to process and extract differentiated value out of this data. However, if you’re trying to get value out of operational data, whether on prem or in the cloud, there are inherent risks and costs associated with moving data from one environment to another.

Javascript Object Notation (JSON) is becoming the standard log format, with most modern applications and services taking advantage of its flexibility for their logging needs. However, the great flexibility for developers quickly turns into complexity for the DevOps and Data Engineers responsible for ingesting and processing the logs. That’s why we developed JSON FLEX: a scalable analytics solution for complex, nested JSON data.

On top of their industry-leading cloud infrastructure, Amazon Web Services (AWS) offers more than 15 cloud-based analytics services to satisfy a diverse range of business and IT use cases. For AWS customers, understanding the features and benefits of all 15 AWS analytics services can be a daunting task - not to mention determining which analytics service(s) to deploy for a specific use case.

Can DataOps help data consumers reveal and take action on powerful product insights hidden in operational data? For many companies, the answer is yes! The emerging practice of DataOps applies Agile development principles and DevOps best practices (e.g. collaboration, automation, monitoring and logging, observability) to data science and engineering, making it faster and easier for organizations to uncover valuable product insights that enable innovation.

Streaming analytics is an invaluable capability for organizations seeking to extract real-time insights from the log data they continuously generate through applications and cloud services. To help our community get started with streaming analytics on AWS, we published a piece last year called An Overview of Streaming Analytics in AWS for Logging Applications, where we covered all the basics.

In the past, querying a database required Structured Query Language (SQL) skills, or knowledge of other database query languages, such as Kibana Query Language (KQL). Today, with the emergence of generative AI (GenAI), teams can query their analytic database using natural language — and get plain English results in return. Or, if you prefer to still use SQL, many teams use GenAI for database query optimization, making queries faster and more efficient.

Recently at re:Invent, Amazon unveiled S3 Express One Zone for AWS. Express Zone for S3 responds to the demand for faster analytical query speeds, with the convenience of centrally storing all of your application telemetry data in cloud object storage. In the past, for data-intensive applications, data access speeds were slower than desired.

In 2009, as the world became increasingly data-driven, organizations began to accumulate vast amounts of data — a period that would later be characterized as the Big Data revolution. While most organizations were used to handling well-structured data in relational databases, this new data was appearing more and more frequently in semi-structured and unstructured data formats.

With its simplicity, flexibility, and cost-efficient characteristics, Amazon Simple Storage Service (Amazon S3) cloud object storage has become the preferred platform for collecting, analyzing, and retaining today’s growing mountain of diverse and disjointed enterprise data. And as Amazon Web Services (AWS) continues to grab market share in the hyperscale IaaS/PaaS/SaaS marketplace, organizations of every size are leveraging Amazon S3 to underpin a variety of use cases, such as.

What is a data lifecycle? From birth to death, from source to destination, data seems to always be on a journey. If storage and compute were free or there were no laws like the “Right to be Forgotten” within policies such as “General Data Protection Regulation” or GDPR for short, organizations might never delete information. However, at scale data gets extremely expensive and customers do have liberties with regards to governance and sovereignty. Often it is the case that platforms have whole controls and procedures around the lifecycle of data. And in this episode, we will focus on the complexity of scale when it comes to the day in the life of data.

The first 5 challenges of #bigdataanalytics have been solved, bringing us closer to the end of the #datajourney. And here is where it starts getting real: Data Analytics. Today, there are struggles between operational and business analysis departments. SQL and ML functionality natively without data movement or duplication. How can you access and share the data timely, and efficiently, without data movement or duplication or an insane cost increase? Thomas Hazel shares his insights on how any organization can overcome this challenge, easily.

What are data platforms? A data platform (or more topical, “cloud data platform”) is an integrated set of technologies that collectively meet an organization’s end-to-end data needs. In totality, it enables the storage, delivery, and governance of company data, as well as a security layer for users and applications. The heart of a platform is an actual database where it might be better called a data “analytics” platform or in our case big data analytics platform. Learn more about data platforms and how the ChaosSearch platform solves the challenges faced in big data analytics.

What are data destinations? In a very abstract sense, data destination is another input along the series of process elements in a data pipeline. However, when calling out an element as the destination, it is really seen as the final destination such as a database, data lake or data warehouse. And yet, any element within the data pipeline has aspects of a final destination (and scaling challenges).

How to make refining data as affordable as generating it.

ChaosSearch makes it simple for organizations to run cloud-scale log analytics in their own Amazon S3 cloud storage. It uniquely transforms your cheap, secure, and durable cloud object storage into a distributed analytic data lake where scale is infinite, cost is disruptive, and access is universal.

Traditional log analytics weren’t designed for today’s tsunamis of log data. They require brute force (adding more and more compute) to search and analyze huge stores of logs. This means businesses must continually choose between spending more money or reducing data retention.

ChaosSearch’s SaaS data platform was built for a data-entrenched world. It’s based on the company’s patent-pending index technology and architecture that remove the limits, cost, and complexity inherent in conventional solutions.

  • Performance at Scale: Easily scales to petabytes and beyond so you can analyze what you need, whenever you need.
  • Fully Managed Service: There’s no software or hardware for you to deploy, configure or maintain.
  • All on Your Amazon S3: ChaosSearch stores and analyzes data directly in your own Amazon S3 cloud object storage. It does not hold or store any data.
  • Disruptive Pricing: Costs up to 80% less than other solutions, thanks to Chaos Index’s unique properties that eliminate the need to manually shard data and enable unparalleled compression ratios.
