The Logmetry BlueprintThe future of observability

The whole method, given away.

The Logmetry Blueprint is a reference design, not a fixed one: per-GB and per-host economics behave the same way whatever your stack, and your version of every drawing gets made in the architecture review, on your stack, at the phases you choose.

All the review asks of you is your architecture diagram. Everything below is readable without an email address, and the print edition is a direct download.

The print edition

Your telemetry cleaned, enriched and routed by a pipeline you control. Agents you own triage your alerts on the clean data and fix what they find as pull requests. Then you collect once and shrink the expensive tools.

Four phases, each optional after the first

Phase 01 takes control with a pipeline that cleans, enriches and routes every source, Phase 02 puts SOC agents you own on the clean data, Phase 03 has those agents fix what they find as pull requests, Phase 04 collects once on the open standard and shrinks the expensive tools to what earns its place, and Phase 01 is a complete engagement on its own.

A pipeline you control, in front of every platform. A complete engagement on its own.

What gets built

  • A pipeline in front of your SIEM and APM, built as code
  • Every event cleaned, deduplicated, masked and enriched in flight
  • Each platform fed what it needs: every alert kept, more sources covered
  • A clean Lake in your storage, ready for AI agents
  • The full raw copy in an archive you own, for audit and replay

What you own after

The pipeline, every routing decision, the Lake and the raw archive, all as code in your repositories.

The gate

A valid place to stop. Phase 01 is a complete engagement on its own.

RemovesPaying to index what nobody reads

Read Phase 01, Foundation →

SOC agents you own, on the clean data. People on the exceptions.

What gets built

  • SOC agents on the alerts your tools already fire, read-only
  • Business, infrastructure, log and trace data in one Lake, read without parsing
  • Root cause analysis across every source in the Lake
  • The alerts your team never gets to, worked
  • Threat hunting across the clean Lake
  • Fixes proposed as pull requests, reviewed by your team

What you own after

Playbooks that get sharper with every investigation, and the agents themselves, in your account, on your runbooks.

The gate

Comes straight after Phase 01, once it is proved on your data. A person on your team reviews every exception, and remediation is always a proposal someone reviews, never an unattended change.

RemovesThe alerts nobody reaches

Read Phase 02, AI triage →

Agents fix what they find, as pull requests on your code. A person approves every change.

What gets built

  • Agents connected to your repositories and your ticketing
  • Pull requests for the errors they find in security, observability and your applications
  • Each fix attached to the ServiceNow ticket, or sent to the owning team
  • Your pipeline tests it and a person approves it before it merges

What you own after

Agents that close the loop from alert to fix on your own code and configuration, with a reviewed history of every change.

The gate

Comes after AI triage is working your alerts. The agent never changes production on its own: a person approves every pull request.

RemovesFixes that wait in a queue

Read Phase 03, Remediation →

Collect once, then shrink the expensive tools to what earns its place. Nothing moves before parity.

What gets built

  • OpenTelemetry collectors on every host, nobody licenses them
  • A fleet console under OpAMP, running in your account
  • Each alert and each rule rebuilt in code
  • Infrastructure monitoring on an open source time series database you own
  • Crown-jewel tracing kept where it earns its price

What you own after

The collectors and the fleet console, and platforms replaced where they can be and cut back to a small core where they cannot, all as code.

The gate

Alert parity, proven tier by tier and in writing, before a single host comes off per-node pricing.

RemovesPer-vendor agents, and per-node licenses on ordinary hosts

What the finished estate looks like

Work the phases and this is the estate you run in two or three years: telemetry and cost under control, everything landing enriched in a Lake partitioned the way investigations move, serving compliance, audit and the agents at once.

Collected once, routed four waysEvery host runs one open collector, and everything is collected once. A collection and control layer enriches, cleans, aggregates, partitions, deduplicates, and routes it in flight, then routes it four ways: the whole of it, enriched and correlated, to a full-fidelity Lake your agent reads, most of what you watch to a metric store you own with rules and alerts as code, a fraction of the volume to the SIEM, and a fraction of the hosts to the APM, which stay for the critical apps they are genuinely great at. You decide what reaches each one before anyone bills you for it.YOUR ESTATEEvery host, oneopen collectorAll of it,onceCOLLECTION + CONTROL LAYEREvery source, shaped in flightENRICHCLEANAGGREGATEPARTITIONDEDUPLICATEROUTEALL OF IT, ENRICHEDSTANDARD MONITORINGA FRACTION OF VOLUMEA FRACTION OF HOSTSTHE LAKEEnriched, read by your agentYOUR METRIC STOREYour rules as code, no per-node billTHE SIEMOnly what detection needsTHE APMCrown-jewel apps, deliberately small
The machine complete. Everything is collected once and shaped in flight. The Lake takes all of it, enriched, cleaned, and correlated for your Agent to read. The metric store takes standard infrastructure monitoring for most of the estate, and the expensive tools, genuinely great on your most critical apps, take a governed fraction. This is the future of agentic observability.

Each destination is good at something different and priced differently, so each gets its own rule. Security tooling receives what security needs and nothing else. The rest lands in the Lake at full fidelity, partitioned so it comes back fast and cheap to keep for as long as compliance asks. Replay any of it into any destination when an investigation wants it. So why pay a platform to hold what fires no rule, in case you need it later?

From outside nothing moved. Same sources, same destinations, same service desk. In between sits a layer you own, where the models are yours and the runbooks are your team's.

Asked about the Logmetry Blueprint

The Logmetry Blueprint is a reference design you can stop at any phase of, published in full because verifying buyers deserve the method, not a teaser.

Is the Logmetry Blueprint a product?

No. It is a reference design: open collection under fleet control, one control layer deciding what each destination gets, a full-fidelity Lake you own, the expensive tools shrunk to what earns its place, and, later, an agent working the alerts you choose, read-only. Your version of it gets drawn on your stack in the review.

Do I have to do all four phases?

No. Phase 01 is a complete engagement and a valid place to stop. The later phases are continuations for estates that want them, and estates that already run Cribl, OpenTelemetry, or a lake enter at the phase that matches what they already have.

Why publish the whole method?

Because we want to push the future of observability, and we believe everyone should have a method for it. We are not afraid of you attempting this without us, and we are happy to share it. This is advanced architecture work, and everything it produces is yours. If you take it on yourself, our suggestion is right here.

Does the Logmetry Blueprint replace our SIEM or APM?

Never. The control layer sits in front of your SIEM and your monitoring platforms, deciding what each receives. Detections keep firing where they fire today. The only honest replacement case is per-node infrastructure monitoring, and there each alert is rebuilt and proven in writing first. What changes is the lock-in: with the control layer in front, swapping a SIEM or an APM becomes a routing change and a migration measured in weeks, not a rebuild measured in months while a license holds you in place.

See your architecture drawn, with the costs, before you spend anything.

Our lead architects draw your SIEM feed from your diagrams: where the cost sits, what step one would change, and where it would not pay. If it pays, the next step is a two-week proof on your noisiest source.

Free. No system access. No obligation. You keep the drawing.
