## Overview

- **Tagline:** Petabyte-scale, schema-less ingest on a fully managed event store with 95%+ compression, ensuring no data is left behind without high operational costs or data sampling. Offers predictable, usage-based billing significantly cheaper than alternatives, with a modern backend and a classic, powerful query user experience (APL/MPL). It also supports phased migrations from legacy systems like Splunk and is built for integration with AI agents.
