KloudMate is a comprehensive observability platform that assists developers in identifying & troubleshooting issues and optimizing application performance & health across distributed environments.

KloudMate offers a Single-Source-of-Truth approach for observability by enabling developers to gather and consolidate telemetry data from multiple distributed systems using OpenTelemetry. With KloudMate, you can get a detailed diagnosis of your application infrastructure, pinpoint & troubleshoot errors, drill down to associated logs, metrics, or traces, and fix issues in a matter of minutes.

And to keep things neat and organized, KloudMate lets you create multiple Workspaces. You can use workspaces to group multiple teams, accounts, or orgs. For example, you can create separate workspaces for development, production, etc.

The Console

The console is an intuitive and comprehensive module that offers a power-packed overview of your entire infrastructure. KloudMate captures, organizes, and presents all of the mission-critical data through the console. Think quick-view snapshots of span count, log count, metric points count, recent issues, and more. Connect and switch between multiple AWS accounts or create multiple workspaces and manage them from a single window.

It also provides a quick snapshot of your AWS account's billing patterns and global resource distribution

Dashboards

KloudMate allows you to create custom dashboards and populate them with metrics that match your monitoring needs. You can configure your custom metrics using queries and expressions, and visualize the data in custom dashboards. You can save these dashboards for future use and you can access them using the dashboards section in the platform.

Lambda

KloudMate monitors all your Lambda functions by co-relating data from logs, metrics, and traces, and providing powerful intelligence for end-to-end visibility. The system automatically assimilates various performance and usage metrics, that allow for quick and effortless analysis of the application, at any given point.

In summary, some of the viewable metrics are:

  • Top invocations, errors & warnings
  • Duration & billed duration
  • Memory utilization
  • Cold start metrics
  • The severity of different errors including timeout and crash

Fix issues fast and get back to doing what you do best. Build.

Logs

Find relevant logs in seconds, using contextual keywords. KloudMate automatically ingests logs via OpenTelemetry integration and aggregates every execution to present the logs in a way that is easy to find look at and understand.

KloudMate automatically parses and displays JSON logs in a readable format. You can search logs across multiple functions, and narrow down on the results by date and time range.

Alarms

KloudMate allows the creation and configuration of custom alerts that you as a Developer would like to monitor in real-time. You can create custom alerts for events that are critical to your application and get notified for errors, exceptions, timeouts, and more, all without having to leave your favorite notification tools, such as Email, Slack, MS Teams, Webhooks, and SNS

The custom alerts can assist you in ensuring the high availability and reliability of your application by notifying you of the occurrences that you believe can help you avoid failures before it's too late.

Modern application architectures such as distributed systems are agile, fault-tolerant, and virtually infinitely scalable. But the true power of these architectures can only be harnessed with effective observability. And KloudMate strives to be just that - an effective, yet super simple-to-use Observability tool, for your applications.
