Kishore Gopalakrishna says that the observability market is ripe for disruption in the AI age, particularly at the storage and query layer. The former LinkedIn architect is now co-founder and CEO of StarTree, which offers a real time analytics platform based on Apache Pinot. The company has a preview version of its StarTree Cloud service for observability that supports metrics, logs and traces, and shipped StarTree ThirdEye last year for anomaly detection and root-cause analysis. In this episode, Gopalakrishna discusses why the new products are a cheaper, faster alternative for observability.
