The three pillars of Observability

Our Observability Platform is based on the proven Victoria stack: VictoriaMetrics for metrics, VictoriaLogs for logs, and VictoriaTraces for traces. Full integration with OpenTelemetry and Grafana as frontend.

Metrics

Prometheus-compatible metrics

Collect, store, and query metrics with PromQL. Based on VictoriaMetrics for maximum performance and scalability with minimal resource consumption.
Prometheus PromQL VictoriaMetrics Metrics
VictoriaMetrics

Logs

Central log management

Aggregate and search logs from all your applications and infrastructure components. Based on VictoriaLogs or Loki for efficient storage and fast search.
Loki VictoriaLogs LogQL Logs
VictoriaLogs

Traces

Distributed Tracing

Track requests through your distributed systems. Based on VictoriaTraces for efficient trace storage and analysis. Full OpenTelemetry support.

Compliance & Regulatory Requirements

The ayedo Software Delivery Platform meets the requirements of current EU regulations. From GDPR to NIS-2 to DORA – our platform is designed for regulated industries and critical infrastructures.

GDPR-Compliant Data Processing

Privacy by Design & Default.

EU data residency (Germany), Customer-Managed Keys (BYOK/BYOHSM), encryption at rest/in transit. ISO 27001-certified data protection management. Support for data subject rights, DPA, incident response. More about GDPR.

NIS-2-Compliant Operations

Resilience for critical infrastructures.

24/7 monitoring, incident response, BCP/DR processes, supply chain transparency (SBOM). EU-based operations, MFA/PAM, vulnerability management, patch processes. Ideal for essential/important entities. More about NIS-2.

DORA-Ready for Financial Institutions

ICT resilience tailored.

ICT risk management framework, documented exit strategies, third-party risk management, TLPT readiness. Structured incident reporting chains, continuous resilience testing, ISO 27001-certified. More about DORA.

CRA-Compliant Software Supply Chain

Security by Design across the entire lifecycle.

SBOM generation, CVE scanning, vulnerability disclosure processes, update management. Signed container images, GitOps-based audit trails, transparent supply chain. More about CRA.

Cloud Sovereignty Framework

Digital sovereignty made measurable.

EU-based operations, open standards, exit capability without lock-in. Designed for SEAL-4 (Full Digital Sovereignty) across all eight sovereignty objectives. No dependencies on non-EU control. More about the Framework.

Data Act-Compliant Portability

Switching without barriers.

Open APIs (OpenAPI), standardized formats (YAML/JSON/OCI), complete exit runbooks, Infrastructure-as-Code portability. Multi-cloud capable, no egress fees, functional equivalence. More about Data Act.
