They Bought the Telemetry Pipeline. You Pay the Observability Tax. Why It's Time to Go 100% Open Source

With the massive acquisitions we saw in the observability space over the last few months, the big legacy vendors are now ALL running the very same playbook: buy the pipeline, control the data, and lock you in! They want to own the tollbooth so they can charge you for all of the traffic.

At MyDecisive, we believe your telemetry pipeline should serve your engineers, not your analytics vendor's shareholders.

That is why MyDecisive remains the only independent, 100% open-source observability pipeline built to give you total control over your data. We don't care what backend you use; we care that you don't go bankrupt getting your data there.

Now you are reevaluating how to handle the ever-growing, massive data volumes of AI and cloud-native scaling, see why MyDecisive is the only company staying true to developers while delivering an enterprise-grade control plane:

• Native to OpenTelemetry & "OTel Fast" We didn't build a proprietary agent to lock you in and we didn't bolt OTel on as an afterthought. MyDecisive is built natively on OpenTelemetry from the ground up. It handles massive throughput with near-zero latency - delivering the extreme performance modern distributed architectures demand.

• In-Flight PII Redaction On the Wire You shouldn't have to send data to a central SaaS server just to find out it contains sensitive user data. MyDecisive inspects, masks, and encrypts PII on the wire, actively redacting sensitive payloads before they ever leave your VPC.

• Zero Egress Waste By filtering noise and handling compliance directly at the edge, you only pay to move the high-fidelity signals that actually matter. No more paying AWS $80k a year in data transfer fees just to route garbage logs to a dashboard you never look at.

The era of "send everything and pay the tax" is over. But trading one vendor lock-in for a bundled pipeline lock-in isn't the answer.

If you want an enterprise-grade pipeline that is 100% open-source, keeps your data secure inside your VPC, and lets you route to any destination without penalty - take a look at MyDecisive.

Take back control of your telemetry. Be Decisive.
