Mezmo announced a simple, more predictable pricing structure for its intelligent telemetry orchestration platform.
The new structure includes one component for processing and analyzing data and another for data retention: $0.20 per gigabyte ingested and $0.20 per gigabyte retained per month, respectively. That’s down from $1.80 per gig retained, delivering nearly 90% in savings. The company’s simple, transparent approach to pricing gives companies the freedom to scale without high, unpredictable costs.
The move is a response to a compounding industry problem: Infrastructure and applications have created an explosion in data from cloud, microservices and AI, causing observability costs to skyrocket. Most vendors charge premium prices — calculated in complex formulas — to process and analyze telemetry data, even as global data volumes are projected to more than double by 2028. As a result, companies are forced to keep everything, driving up observability costs with bloated, unpredictable bills.
Mezmo took a different approach, restructuring and modernizing its backend to compress infrastructure costs while continuously enhancing its pipeline processing and data orchestration capabilities to enable greater efficiency and pass those savings directly to customers. The company saw more than a 90% reduction in infrastructure and resources and a 70% reduction in operational applications. The result? Mezmo completely transformed its approach to pricing, significantly reducing customer costs and simplifying the structure to correlate cost with value.
“We tackled the rising costs of observability head-on by taking a holistic look at how organizations process, analyze and store telemetry data,” said Tucker Callaway, CEO of Mezmo. “The result is a more sustainable, scalable and valuable model for observability data.”
Key benefits of Mezmo’s 2025 pricing:
- Simple, transparent pricing for contract customers. $0.20 per gigabyte ingested, and $0.20 per gigabyte retained monthly. No confusing formulas based on CPU, data type, user count or queries.
- Built-in cost control. Teams can decide what data to ingest, preprocess it locally with Mezmo Edge, or send it directly to Mezmo to intelligently filter and route, retaining only what matters, wherever they need it.
- Cold storage with rehydration. Rehydration lets users archive data to reduce spend and restore it to Mezmo when needed for analysis or debugging, balancing cost with access.

Enterprises today operate in a real-time environment where uninterrupted access to trusted data has become a baseline expectation for users, applications and automated systems. Traditional DataOps models, built on manual effort and human triage, cannot keep pace with this always active demand. AI agents are emerging as the operational backbone, ensuring consistent data availability, reinforcing trustworthiness and enabling a level of scale that manual processes cannot achieve ...
For decades, trust in the digital workplace rested on familiar signals. We trusted faces on video calls, voices on the phone, and emails that appeared to come from people we knew. These cues felt human and intuitive. They anchored how decisions were made, approvals were granted, and access was authorized. AI-powered deepfakes have quietly broken that model ...
Cloud migration was supposed to be a one-way door. For most enterprises, it turns out it isn't. Cloud data repatriation is a real and growing trend. A new survey ... finds that 89% of organizations plan to expand their on-premises infrastructure footprint over the next two years — and 75% have already moved at least some workloads back from public cloud in the past 24 months. The findings point to a broad rethinking of where data belongs ...
Over the past few years, large language models (LLMs) have revolutionized the software industry. Given their ability to excel at multi-step reasoning, LLMs have helped enterprises streamline workflows and adapt to the unknown. However, employing such models comes with sky-high costs, latency issues, and limited flexibility. In the realm of IT operations, it is generally wiser to employ smaller, domain-specific models instead ...
For years, DevOps teams operated under a simple assumption: collect enough telemetry, and you can find and fix any problem. That assumption is breaking down. Modern enterprises now operate across microservices, hybrid cloud environments, APIs, Kubernetes, and highly automated delivery pipelines. Releases happen continuously, dependencies shift constantly, and failures spread faster than teams can diagnose them ...
New Relic surveyed IT and engineering leaders from the media and entertainment (M&E) sector to understand what's working — and where challenges persist with their observability practices. The findings reveal how M&E organizations are navigating rising platform complexity, audience expectations, and AI-driven change. Below are five takeaways that stand out ...
Let me start with something I've seen play out more times than I can count. A team hits a wall with the cloud. Costs creep up, then spike. Performance starts to feel inconsistent. Someone in finance asks a simple question like "why did this double?" and nobody has a clean answer ... Maybe this isn't the right place for everything. That realization feels like a breakthrough, like you've identified the problem. In reality, you've just identified the starting line ...
