_TRACER TECHNOLOGY

Powering Scientific
Breakthroughs

Tracer uses cutting-edge technology to bring observability to complex scientific pipelines. By extracting real-time system-level data, Tracer turns what was initially a black box into clear, actionable insights.

LAYER 001

Extraction layer

Linux-based connectors written in Rust extract information straight from the operating system (OS). With the newest technologies such as eBPF, we ensure very low overhead at 2% while keeping extreme speed.

OS-level connection ensures deeper visibility compared to application-connectors.

Unprecedented information gathering while bypassing terrible logging and incomplete information
LAYER 002

Filter layer

Science-specific information about the tools, frameworks, and files is automatically recognised and extracted.

The filter takes into account the deep technical and scientific information required for actionable insights compared to generic observability outputs.

Filter focused on science-specific pipeline information, differing from other observability solutions
LAYER 003

Transformation Layer

Extracted and filtered information is transformed into Open Telemetry format, the latest standard for observability practices.

Pioneering an approach called “synthetic log generation”, Tracer creates logs even where there was nothing before.

LAYER 004

Insights layer

We implement AI and other predictive technologies on top of the generated information for fast error resolution, cost reduction, and speed improvements.

This layer consists of different applications on top of our data lake of pipeline information for all levels across the enterprise — for scientists, engineers, and executives.
