Wavefront

Wavefront is a hosted platform for ingesting, storing, visualizing and alerting on time series data. In practice that means running websites, apps and data on servers you do not have to maintain.

It makes the most sense for developers and businesses of every size. They also list Analytics, Big Data, Cloud Computing, Cloud Management and Data Visualization, so expect those to show up in the feature set. As a small product team themselves (11 to 50 people), they tend to serve customers of a similar scale best. Small vendors mean quick answers and real influence on the roadmap, but check who covers support when someone is out.

Wavefront is based in Palo Alto, California. Their site is wavefront.com.

Before you commit, look at pricing predictability, support quality, and migration help. A short pilot with your real data tells you more than any demo.
