Chronosphere is an observability platform built for cloud-native and Kubernetes environments, with a particular focus on controlling the cost of metrics data at scale. Founded in 2019 and compatible with Prometheus and OpenTelemetry, it covers APM, infrastructure monitoring, and log management for teams operating very large deployments. Pricing is enterprise and quote-based with no free tier, placing it in the premium tier. While its origins trace to the open-source M3 project, the platform itself is proprietary and closed-source, and it holds SOC2 and ISO27001 compliance.
