Addressing the AI Telemetry Challenge

Enterprises are rapidly adopting AI agents and workloads that generate orders of magnitude more queries, logs, metrics, and traces—overwhelming legacy storage and analysis systems. Cribl’s open architecture efficiently manages this “digital exhaust” (telemetry data), enabling organizations to route, process, and analyze data at scale without vendor lock-in.

“Everyone has AI ambition, but most enterprises are realizing their legacy infrastructure simply wasn't built for it,” said Clint Sharp, co-founder and CEO of Cribl. “Current tools collapse under the speed and scale of AI workloads. Our continued growth proves that the market is ready for a new foundation. We are building agentic telemetry to turn AI ambition into infrastructure reality, giving our customers the open, vendor-agnostic architecture they need to lead in the AI era.”

Cribl’s solutions empower customers to collect, process, and route all IT and security data from any source to any destination, delivering the choice, control, and flexibility required for an AI-first world.
