## Application observability

Sumo Logic’s application observability solution delivers comprehensive, end-to-end visibility across all your data—and distributed transaction tracing—on a highly scalable, secure, and cost-efficient analytics platform.

### Automated discovery and dashboards

Customers can spend a lot of time managing their tools instead of managing their applications. Sumo Logic reduces monitoring setup time by proactively discovering new services and infrastructure as it is deployed. This information is then displayed in pre-configured dashboards and automatically configured alerts.
