Independent Cribl & Observability Consultant

Cut Splunk and Datadog cost without breaking data integrity.

I build Cribl Stream and Cribl Edge pipelines that lower telemetry cost while keeping the audit trails and data integrity that regulated environments require. Based on three years working hands-on with Cribl inside a global pharmaceutical company in a GxP-regulated environment.

The problem

Most teams in regulated industries overpay for observability.

Not because they collect too much data, but because they push all of it, raw, into tools like Splunk and Datadog that bill by the gigabyte.

Cribl sits between your sources and your analytics tools. You decide what is worth full price, what goes to cheap storage, and what gets dropped. The full-fidelity data your auditors need stays intact, and the bill comes down.

What I help with

Two ways I work with teams.

Observability and telemetry cost is the core. Informatica Cloud integration is the second offering, backed by years in regulated environments.

How I work

Low risk to start, scoped before you commit.

01

Intro call

A 30-minute call to understand your stack, your bill, and what is actually hurting. No charge, no obligation.

02

Scoped assessment

A fixed-scope review of your pipelines and ingest: what can be cut, what gets routed to cheap storage, what stays, and what it is worth.

03

Delivery

I build and tune the pipelines with audit trails and data integrity intact, and hand over something your team can run.

Let's talk

If your Splunk or Datadog bill keeps climbing, let's fix it.

Or you need Informatica Cloud (IICS) integration done right in a regulated environment. Either way, a 30-minute call is the fastest way to find out if I can help.
