Why SystemsLab?

Understand the what and why of your application's runtime behavior so you can set it up for maximum performance at minimum costs.

Automated, reproducible testing. Explore with hundreds of benchmarking tests to find the best configuration settings for your application with a single command, or have regression tests against your codebase run like clockwork. Define your tests once, check them in as code; then sit back, and let the reports come to you.

Low-level metrics; high-level visualizations. Thanks to eBPF, our telemetry agent can observe just about any system behavior at sub-secondly granularity with extremely low overhead. Our UI puts you in the driver's seat allowing you to extract insights, ask questions, and make decisions without ever leaving your browser.

Effective communication. We are fluent in the language of both engineers and executives. Whether you want to track an event down to the microarchitecture or you want to work out the budgetary details for your CFO, we have the report for you.

Clear ownership boundaries. SystemsLab runs on your infrastructure, whether in the cloud or a datacenter. You always own all your data. It does not require any user or personal information to function. There is no tracking or surprise bills. Use it as much as you want!
