The Agentic AI Telemetry Crisis
Are you ready for what's coming?
A new Omdia survey of 300+ enterprise IT decision-makers confirms what many already suspect: the telemetry data explosion is here, agentic AI is accelerating it, and most organizations aren't ready. This report tells you exactly what the prepared ones are doing differently.
The gap between deployed and ready is bigger than most expect.
Three things the data made impossible to ignore.
A preview. The full data is in the report.
Observability budgets are growing faster than the AI they're supposed to support
89% of organizations cite telemetry data growth as the primary driver. See the full cost breakdown in the report.

35% claim widespread agentic AI deployment — but the data on actual readiness tells a different story. It's in the report.

The research quantifies the cybersecurity, compliance, and fraud detection exposure organizations face when observability costs force deployment decisions. The full risk data is in the report.

Three questions every enterprise needs to answer today.
The research points to a clear path. Here's where to start.
How prepared is your telemetry infrastructure for a 9.5× data surge?
If you don't have a pipeline-first architecture, you're not ready. Organizations without a telemetry pipeline are significantly less prepared and significantly more exposed to cost, compliance, and operational risk as agentic AI workloads scale.
Are your observability costs under control — or are they controlling you?
With observability budgets growing 28% year-over-year and 69% of enterprises reporting that observability now costs more than compute for their AI projects, cost management is no longer optional. A telemetry pipeline that reduces what reaches your observability platform is the primary lever you have.
Are you in the evaluation window — or being evaluated out of it?
70% of enterprises are evaluating telemetry pipeline solutions in the next six months. If you're not in those conversations, your competitors are.
