Machine data collected from IT infrastructures and applications, represent henceforth critical assets, when it comes to inter alia enable organizations, to improve productivity, IT operations efficiency, security, and reduce the cost of IT.

With a new $2.5M round of financing, Graylog aims to provide services and support to make it even easier for organizations to deploy Graylog in production, and to continue offering an affordable alternative to expensive machine data analysis platforms.

Connectikpeople.co recalls that Graylog was created as an open source platform to make big data analytics affordable so that more organizations can realize the benefits of collecting, storing, and analyzing log data to improve operational efficiency, security, and reduce the cost of IT. 

“Innovation in IT operations analytics is being held back by pricing constraints and a lack of competition,” said Aziz Gilani, Partner of the Mercury Fund. “Graylog is in a position to disrupt this market with a big data platform that is enterprise-ready and has budget friendly pricing that encourages experimentation’’. 

The round was led by the Mercury Fund, with participation from Crosslink Capital, Draper Associates and High-Tech Gründerfonds.
