Discover how OpenObserve built the "Council of Sub Agents" - eight specialized AI agents powered by Claude Code that automate end-to-end testing. Learn how we reduced feature analysis time from 60 minutes to 5 minutes, eliminated 85% of flaky tests, grew test coverage from 380 to 700+ tests, and caught a production bug before customers reported it. This deep dive reveals the architecture, real-world impact, and lessons learned from building an autonomous QA team that doesn't just automate testing - it amplifies quality.

Hands-on comparison of DataDog vs OpenObserve pipelines. Explore real-time vs scheduled processing, VRL-based transformations, multi-destination routing, and cost-efficient, unified observability pipelines without extra infrastructure.
Does cheaper observability mean worse capabilities? We tested this assumption by sending identical telemetry from a 16-service OpenTelemetry demo to both DataDog and OpenObserve simultaneously. The results: DataDog costs $174/day vs OpenObserve's $3/day—98% cost savings without sacrificing visibility. Evereve achieved similar results: 90% cost reduction, platform consolidation, and unlimited instrumentation after migrating from DataDog.
