Developer-centric Observability

Chronosphere Lens transforms heterogeneous telemetry data into a unified, consistent data framework and troubleshooting workflow that streamlines decision making and issue resolution.

Lens Features

Automated Service Discovery

Chronosphere Lens automates the discovery of services within cloud-native environments, eliminating manual setup. By automatically and continuously identifying and registering new services as they are deployed, Lens ensures that users can immediately begin monitoring and analyzing these services without any delay.

This feature streamlines the integration of service data into the observability workflow, enhancing operational efficiency and visibility.

Global Service List

Chronosphere Lens features a Global Service List that provides a comprehensive overview of all services across your environment. This centralized list allows users to quickly understand the status and health of each service at a glance.

By offering a high-level view, Lens simplifies monitoring and enables more efficient navigation across complex cloud-native architectures, enhancing the ability to prioritize and address issues systematically.

Automated Service-Centric View

Chronosphere Lens enhances observability with automated, service-centric views that focus directly on individual service health and performance. This feature dynamically generates tailored views for each service, aggregating relevant metrics, logs, events and traces into a cohesive interface.

By centering the user experience around services, Lens enables quicker access to essential data and simplifies the complexity typically associated with managing microservices architectures.

Consolidated View of Heterogeneous Data

Chronosphere Lens consolidates heterogeneous telemetry data— whether it’s metrics, traces, logs or events—from various sources into a unified view. It provides seamless correlation across these different telemetry types, enhancing the clarity and usability of data.

This integration enables users to gain comprehensive insights into their systems' performance and health, simplifying complex data management in cloud native environments.

Surfaced Insights - Not Raw Data

Chronosphere Lens transforms complex telemetry into focused insights rather than overwhelming users with raw data.

By selectively surfacing information that engineers care about, Lens enables quicker understanding and response to system behaviors, streamlining the troubleshooting process in cloud native environments.
