SquareShift consolidates fragmented observability stacks into unified Elasticsearch deployments — saving enterprises 40-90% on TCO with zero-downtime migrations and AI-powered operations.
Free assessment. 24-hour response SLA.
You're managing 5-7 observability vendors. Splunk for logs. Datadog for metrics. New Relic for APM. Grafana for dashboards. AppDynamics for RUM. Your observability budget is growing 30% YoY. Your on-call engineers are drowning in 10,000+ daily alerts where 90% are false positives. Every consolidation attempt has failed because migration risk is existential.
You're paying for 5-7 vendors (Splunk, Datadog, New Relic, Grafana, AppDynamics, Prometheus). License costs compound. Total cost of ownership is 2-4x what unified Elasticsearch would cost. Your CFO is asking questions you can't answer.
See solutionThousands of alerts across platforms. 90%+ false positives. Your engineers ignore critical alerts because they're buried in noise. On-call burnout is real. MTTR is measured in hours, not minutes.
See solutionLogs in Splunk. Metrics in Datadog. Traces in New Relic. No single pane of glass. Root cause analysis takes hours because data is siloed across tools. You're paying for overlap while missing gaps.
See solutionYou know consolidation makes sense. But you're afraid of downtime, data loss, or breaking production during migration. Every vendor promises "seamless migration." You've seen those projects fail. The risk is existential.
See solutionSquareShift consolidates your observability stack into Elasticsearch, cutting costs 40-90% while improving visibility, reducing alert noise, and accelerating incident response. One platform. Complete visibility. Zero downtime.
Centralize logs from all sources (apps, infra, cloud) with Elastic's powerful query language and ML-powered anomaly detection. Single source of truth for all log data. No more switching between Splunk and Datadog.
“We reduced log storage costs 60% by consolidating to Elasticsearch with intelligent sampling.”
Collect and visualize metrics (CPU, memory, network, custom) with Elasticsearch's Metricbeat and Kibana dashboards. Unified metrics + logs = faster root cause analysis.
“We cut MTTR in half by correlating metrics and logs in a single Kibana dashboard.”
Distributed tracing for microservices with Elastic APM. Visualize request flows across services. Identify bottlenecks and latency issues across complex distributed systems.
“Elastic APM showed us a 2-second database query was causing 80% of our API latency.”
Application performance monitoring with Elastic APM agents. Track errors, throughput, latency, service dependencies. Full-stack visibility from frontend to backend, all in Elasticsearch.
“We identified and fixed a memory leak in production within 10 minutes using Elastic APM.”
Unlike piecemeal migrations that risk downtime and data loss, SquareShift's consolidation architecture uses our proprietary Blast Radius and Topology Builder accelerators to map your entire observability stack, identify dependencies, execute zero-downtime data migration, and validate every step. Your teams continue normal operations throughout. The result: unified Elasticsearch observability with 40-90% cost savings.
Proven methodology from 15B+ documents migrated. Zero downtime. Zero data loss.
We audit your current observability stack (Splunk, Datadog, New Relic, etc.), analyze data volumes, query patterns, alert configurations, and team workflows. We identify consolidation opportunities and quantify TCO savings. You get a roadmap with cost estimates and risk mitigation plan.

Observability consolidation pricing depends on data volumes, number of tools, migration complexity, and service scope. We provide transparent estimates after a free assessment. Typical migrations range from mid-five-figures to mid-six-figures depending on scale. A 2.4TB migration costs differently than a 200GB migration.

Fortune 500 Automotive
Automotive · Enterprise · Observability Consolidation
Tool sprawl across 7 observability vendors. $500K+ annual observability spend. Alert fatigue with 10K+ alerts/day. No unified visibility across logs, metrics, traces.
Solution: SquareShift migrated 2.4TB of logs, metrics, and traces to unified Elasticsearch. Deployed Alarm Noise Suppression and Topology Builder accelerators. Zero-downtime migration.
Payments Platform
Financial Services · SOC2 Compliance · SIEM
SOC2 audit in 16 weeks. No SIEM in place. Fragmented security logging across multiple tools. Compliance team couldn't prove audit trail coverage.
Solution: SquareShift implemented Elasticsearch SIEM with 12-week methodology. Deployed Compliance Reporter and AI Triage Assistant accelerators. Achieved audit-ready state.
We've answered these questions 60+ times across enterprise deployments. Here's what platform teams ask.
We use a phased migration approach with parallel data ingestion, real-time validation, and automated failback. Your teams continue using existing tools during migration. We cut over only when we've validated data integrity. We've migrated 15B+ documents with zero downtime, including a 2.4TB production environment for a Fortune 500 automotive company.
See 2.4TB Migration Case StudyWe implement multi-layer data validation: source-to-destination checksums, sample queries across both systems, and audit trail logging. We've never lost data in 60+ migrations. All migrations include rollback plans. If validation fails at any step, we pause, diagnose, and fix before proceeding. Your data is safer during migration than it is in your current fragmented stack.
Assessment takes 1-2 weeks, migration takes 6-8 weeks, optimization and training takes 2-3 weeks. Timeline depends on data volumes and tool count. A 200GB migration is faster than a 2.4TB migration. We provide detailed project plans after the free audit with exact timelines for your environment.
Most enterprises see positive ROI within 6-12 months. If you're spending $500K/year on observability, 40% savings = $200K/year. Migration investment typically pays back in first year. Use our TCO calculator for your specific scenario. One customer saved $200K/year just from Log Reduction Engine deployment.
Calculate Your ROIYes. We offer Managed Observability services (24/7 monitoring, incident response, optimization, SLA-backed support) and on-demand consulting. We also offer 90-day post-migration support with all engagements. Your team doesn't go dark after we hand off.
Absolutely. We offer Elasticsearch health checks, cost optimization audits, and accelerator deployment (Alarm Noise Suppression, Log Reduction Engine, Blast Radius, Topology Builder). Many teams are on Elasticsearch but not using it efficiently. Start with a free audit to identify quick wins. We've optimized existing Elasticsearch deployments to achieve 40-60% cost reductions without losing visibility.
We don't just migrate alerts; we optimize them. Our Alarm Noise Suppression accelerator uses ML to identify false positives and reduce alert volume 90%. We migrate business-critical alerts first, optimize them during migration, and deploy correlation rules to reduce noise. Your on-call engineers thank you.
Every engagement includes team training: Elasticsearch query language, Kibana dashboard creation, alert configuration, troubleshooting. We train your team to operate independently. Training is hands-on, scenario-based, and tailored to your environment. We don't just hand off documentation; we hand off capability.
