Honeycomb, the leading observability platform that enables engineering teams to solve problems they couldn’t before, announced the deployment of its SaaS cloud in the European Union (EU), enabling the company to support companies in the EU as they implement observability practices. The company is deepening its investment in Europe by adding seasoned sales leadership in the region in order to help more companies adopt observability in compliance with GDPR and other local data residency regulations.
According to the 2024 Gartner® Emerging Tech Impact Radar for Enterprise Software report, “Observability is expected to have a high impact on enterprise software application development and delivery.” Analyst Colin Fletcher notes that “Observability’s full potential means enabling any observers to ask the questions they want of applications and their components. This should in turn empower not just enterprise software providers and enterprise IT users, but an even larger set of users outside of IT to get the insight they want into the business activity flowing across their cloud-native applications.”
Honeycomb’s deployment of its EU SaaS cloud empowers high-performing engineering teams in Europe with a robust solution tailored to address challenges in today’s intricate cloud systems. For cloud-native companies seeking to expand their global reach, Honeycomb is the only observability platform designed to anticipate and overcome the complexities inherent in distributed cloud systems, which includes managing an unprecedented volume of telemetry data, navigating unpredictability, and meeting the high expectations of end users for top-performing applications.

With Honeycomb, organizations can unlock a new level of understanding, gaining real-time insights that empower them to optimize performance, troubleshoot effectively, and drive innovation. We are excited to equip our EU customers with the transformative capabilities of observability, so they can make informed decisions and elevate their operational performance.”
