Application Observability

Cloud Native Application Observability

Automate triage, compress MTTR, and control spend with AI-driven observability.

Challenges

The Complexities of Cloud-Native Application Monitoring

Dynamic microservices and rapid code updates degrade system visibility, complicate incident triage, and drive up telemetry bills.
Inflexible sampling leaves debugging to chance

Inflexible sampling leaves debugging to chance

Traditional monitoring relies on rigid trace sampling to cut costs, frequently dropping the critical traces needed to debug production failures.
AI-generated code accelerates system drift
Agentic-AI icon

AI-generated code accelerates system drift

AI coding tools speed up deployments but erode developer system context. Manually correlating metrics, logs, and traces in unfamiliar code inflates MTTR.
Noisy alerts mask actual user experience
Alert-Fatigue icon

Noisy alerts mask actual user experience

Traditional monitoring triggers alerts for minor service faults that don't impact end users, creating fatigue and masking critical regressions.
Solutions

Take Control of Application Performance and Telemetry Costs

Cortex® XCOR™ combines AI workflows with comprehensive service views to streamline troubleshooting while keeping spend predictable.

Automate complex triage using AI Investigations

AI Investigations reasons across system topology, operational context, and incident signals to pinpoint likely root causes and compress MTTR.

Unify telemetry with Service Views

Cortex XCOR normalizes custom business-centric telemetry into core Service Views, giving engineers and AI complete operational context.

Product tour

Filter telemetry noise using Optimization Engine

The Optimization Engine filters low-value logs, metrics, and traces at ingestion, capturing only valuable data to control telemetry spend.

Product tour

Protect user experience with native SLOs

Track real-time error budget burn rates and SLOs directly in telemetry workflows to prevent noisy alerts and page only when targets are at risk.

Frequently Asked Questions

Operator is an embedded AI operational engine that replaces static dashboards with conversational operational assistance. It interprets natural language requests and directs specialized agents to execute operational tasks and complex troubleshooting workflows, lowering operational toil for SRE and IT teams.
When an alert triggers, Investigations launches automatically and reasons over XCOR’s Operational Fabric—combining system topology, custom and standard telemetry, and operational knowledge—to deliver evidence-based root cause analysis to compress MTTR.
We offer an easy-to-deploy Cortex XCOR XDOT Collector built entirely on OpenTelemetry standards, while fully supporting the standard upstream OTel collector.
Because Cortex XCOR is fully compatible with OpenTelemetry, it natively supports all major programming languages and frameworks—including Java, Go, Python, Node.js, .NET, and Rust. It automatically auto-discovers dependencies, APIs, and microservice connections out of the box.
