Product Introduction¶

Observability¶

In the cloud-native era, enterprises generally adopt deployment methods such as microservices, containers, and Serverless. Traditional monitoring technologies can no longer meet the enterprise requirements for control and stability of complex IT systems. In 2018, CNCF introduced "Observability" into the IT field, considering it an essential capability in the cloud-native era. Since then, "observability" has become a hot topic, and the CNCF released the Observability White Paper (Translated Chinese Version) which provided a detailed introduction to this concept. Among these, the "three major observability signals" — Metrics, LOGs, and Traces — have also become industry consensus.

Guance¶

Based on a deep understanding and firm belief in IT observability, our company started developing "Cloud-era System Observability Platform —— Guance" in 2018. After five years of meticulous refinement by a professional team, the product was officially launched on April 28, 2022. After its release, we maintained an every two weeks iteration update schedule, actively collecting user feedback to continuously improve the technical stack coverage, user experience, and platform stability.

As a unified real-time monitoring application with observability capabilities, Guance helps users quickly achieve system observability, meeting the monitoring needs of cloud platforms, cloud-native environments, applications, and business operations, building full-chain observability for applications. Moreover, Guance is committed to achieving observability in "testing, staging, and production environments" and connecting "development, testing, and operations teams", assisting enterprises in achieving observability throughout the entire software development lifecycle.
