High Cardinality at Scale: Rethinking Observability for Cloud-native Environments

Monitoring application health and performance across hybrid, multi-cloud environments has become increasingly resource-intensive and prone to blind spots. This paper examines the operational challenges created by fragmented observability and, using Apica’s unified telemetry pipeline and object store architecture as a case study, outlines the requirements for a cohesive approach that enables organizations to bridge silos, enrich data with business context and accelerate the delivery of actionable insights.

Key Findings:

  • While 69% of organizations struggle with six or more fragmented observability platforms, Apica’s unified telemetry pipeline eliminates tool sprawl
  • As telemetry volumes grow exponentially with OpenTelemetry adoption, Apica’s InstaStore™ technology streams data directly to cost-effective object storage
  • When traditional solutions falter under high-cardinality data, Apica’s multi-tier distributed indexing maintains performance even with millions of unique time series combinations
  • Instead of siloed security and operations (affecting 27% of organizations), Apica’s intelligent timeline view automatically correlates metrics, logs, traces, and events in a single interface
