This looks really promising, will definitely look into using this for a project i'm working on! Btw I've used both datadog and newrelic in large-scale production apps and for the costs I still am not very impressed by the dx/ux. If hyperdx can undercut price and deliver parity features/dx (or above) i can easily see this doing well in the market. Good luck!


Thank you! Absolutely agree on Datadog/New Relic DX, I think the funny thing we learned is that most customers of theirs mention how few developers on their team actually comfortably engage with either New Relic or Datadog, and most of the time end up relying on someone to help get the data they need!

Definitely striving to be the opposite of that - and would love to hear how it goes and any place we can improve!


Datadog feels like they've used a shotgun to shoot functionality all over the place. New Relic felt a bit more focused, but even then I had to go attend a New Relic seminar to properly learn how to use the bloody thing.


What does dx/ux mean in this context? Data Diagnostics?
