Sumo Logic

Sumo Logic is a cloud-native SaaS platform that collects, stores and analyzes log, metric and event data so IT, DevOps and security teams can troubleshoot applications, monitor infrastructure and detect threats from a single service. Founded in 2010 and taken private by Francisco Partners in 2023, it was built multi-tenant in the cloud from day one.

The platform ingests data from cloud services, containers, servers, applications and security tools through installed and hosted collectors and OpenTelemetry. Users query data with the Sumo Logic search language, build dashboards and alerts, and apply machine learning features such as LogReduce and outlier detection to spot patterns quickly. On top of the same data layer sit Cloud SIEM for threat detection and Cloud SOAR for automated response, along with hundreds of prebuilt apps for AWS, Azure, Google Cloud, Kubernetes and common enterprise tools. Flexible pricing options include plans that separate data ingestion from analysis costs.

Organizations use Sumo Logic for centralized log management, application and infrastructure monitoring, security operations, audit and compliance reporting, and cost-effective retention of large volumes of machine data.
