VMblog Expert Video Interview: Axiom's Kendall Miller Reveals How Modern Cloud Architecture is Transforming Observability

In this latest VMblog Expert Video Interview Series, we sat down with Kendall Miller, Chief Extrovert at Axiom, to explore how recent advances in cloud technology are revolutionizing the observability landscape. As organizations grapple with exponentially growing data volumes and soaring observability costs, Axiom is emerging with an innovative approach that challenges traditional limitations.

"In today's world, people's biggest bill is their AWS bill, their second biggest bill is their observability bill - and that is wild," notes Miller. He explains how Axiom's ground-up architecture, built on modern cloud computing capabilities, enables organizations to store and analyze virtually unlimited log data at a fraction of traditional costs.

What sets Axiom apart is their unique approach to data storage and management. By leveraging infinitely elastic storage through services like Amazon S3, Axiom has eliminated the need for data sampling - a common cost-saving practice that Miller describes as an "anti-pattern" that companies shouldn't have to follow.

The company offers three flexible delivery models:

  • Traditional SaaS multi-tenant solution
  • Bring-your-own-bucket option
  • Virtual private Axiom with customer-managed infrastructure

For organizations running Kubernetes and cloud-native technologies, Axiom's approach is particularly relevant. As Miller points out, even a basic three-node Kubernetes cluster generates massive amounts of log data, making efficient observability crucial for scaling operations.
