Products



Lightrun Platform


Description:


Lightrun's platform allows developers to add diagnostic logs, metrics, and traces directly to the running applications from their IDEs, enhancing real-time observability.

Key Features:


  • Lightrun Snapshots: Virtual breakpoints to capture entire context without stopping the application.

  • Lightrun Metrics: Measure code execution time and obtain deep insights into performance bottlenecks.

  • Secure-By-Design: Ensures no source code access, and secure read-only instrumentation.

  • IDE Integration: Integrates seamlessly with popular IDEs such as IntelliJ IDEA and Visual Studio Code.

  • Supported Environments: Works in cloud-native applications, Kubernetes, and serverless environments.

  • Sandbox: A built-in sandbox ensures that actions do not impact application stability.


LogOptimizer


Description:


LogOptimizer is an automated log optimization solution that scans source code for log inefficiencies, enabling developers to replace static logs with dynamic logs and reduce logging costs.

Key Features:


  • Logging Waste Detection: Identifies unnecessary and redundant logs.

  • IDE Integration: Run log optimization directly from the IDE.

  • Cost Reduction: Reduces overall logging costs and improves log relevancy.


Autonomous Debugger


Description:


The industry's first Runtime Autonomous Debugger powered by GenAI, automating the runtime debugging process for live distributed applications.

Key Features:


  • AI-assisted Debugging: Uses GenAI to suggest potential root causes and recommend dynamic logs or snapshots.

  • IDE Integration: Directly integrates with an IDE for a seamless debugging experience.

  • Automatic Verification: Captures runtime data and verifies the root cause.


Recent Developments



New Products and Features


  • Autonomous Debugger: Launched the industry's first GenAI-powered runtime debugger that automates the debugging process, reducing time spent on troubleshooting.

  • LogOptimizer: Introduced a new automated solution for log optimization, which helps detect and eliminate logging inefficiencies.


Partnerships


  • IBM Instana: Partnership with IBM Instana to provide integrated observability solutions, enhancing troubleshooting workflows.


New Developments


  • Economic Impact Study: Released a study highlighting the economic impact of using Lightrun, showcasing significant cost savings and productivity improvements for enterprises.

  • Security & Privacy Enhancements: Continues to prioritize security with ISO-27001, SOC 2 Type II, GDPR, and HIPAA compliance, ensuring secure observability for clients.
