Getting started

Picking the right path to onboard your data to slaOS

The first step to getting onboarded to slaOS, is to connect and start pushing relevant logs and/or metrics the system. These could be logs and metrics from your own data warehouse, or they could originate from third party data sources.

When integrating with slaOS, selecting the appropriate data ingestion method is a critical decision that can significantly impact your system's performance, scalability, and operational efficiency.

We allow for both pushing data to the system yourself, and letting us do most of the heavy lifting with a suite of integration agents on popular monitoring stacks.
