Is Loki ops eating
your engineering roadmap?
Fully managed with full-text search, blazing-fast queries, Cursor-like debugging.
Oodle can help you if
- ✓You're spending too much time managing Loki infrastructure
- ✓Ingester OOMs and WAL corruption are regular firefights
- ✓You need full-text search but Loki's label-based model is limiting
- ✓You want AI-native debugging without learning LogQL
Oodle is probably not for you if
- —Your Loki cluster is small and running smoothly
- —You need on-prem deployment with no cloud option
- —You don't need AI-native debugging capabilities

What real users are saying...
Real feedback from GitHub issues, Hacker News, and engineering blogs.
Non-Trivial to Setup and Operate
Running Loki at scale means orchestrating distributors, ingesters, queriers, compactors, index gateways, memcache, and more — each with its own failure modes.
"It is non-trivial to setup and operate. It requires properly configuring and orchestrating numerous components — distributor, ingestor, querier, query frontend, compactor, consul, ruler, memcache, index service, etc."
— Hacker NewsIngester OOMs & WAL Corruption
Stateful ingesters are the Achilles heel of Loki. OOM kills corrupt the WAL, disk fills up, and recovery becomes a manual nightmare.
"Once the ingester restarts due to OOM kill, WAL directory starts filling up and it keeps growing... I had to delete data and have lost the logs."
— grafana/loki#10267Slow Queries & No Full-Text Search
Loki scans all logs at object storage for every query. High-cardinality fields explode RAM. Search over longer time ranges is painfully slow.
"It is very slow on 'needle in the haystack' queries such as 'search for logs containing some rarely seen trace_id', since it needs to read, unpack and scan all the logs at object storage."
— Hacker NewsHidden Costs & Cardinality Explosion
High-cardinality labels blow up RAM. S3 IO costs are overlooked. Storage costs multiply when switching compression codecs. The true TCO is higher than it appears.
"It doesn't support log fields with big number of unique values (aka high-cardinality log fields). If you'll try storing logs with high-cardinality fields into Loki, then it will quickly explode with enormous RAM usage."

Oodle: Built for logs at any scale
S3-based architecture from the team behind Amazon S3, DynamoDB, Rubrik, and Snowflake
Why engineers switch to Oodle
Modern observability without the operational overhead
Zero operational overhead
- No ingesters, compactors, or index gateways to manage
- No Helm chart tuning, no WAL recovery, no ring debugging
- Fully managed — Oodle handles scaling, upgrades, and storage
- S3-native architecture eliminates stateful components entirely
Reclaim the engineering time you spend babysitting Loki
Fast search at any scale
- Full-text search across all log fields — no label restrictions
- Serverless query engine with massive parallelism
- Search over hours, days, or weeks without OOM fears
- High-cardinality fields (trace IDs, user IDs) work natively
Find the needle in the haystack in seconds, not minutes
AI-native debugging
- Ask questions in plain English — no LogQL to learn
- AI assistant available in UI, Slack, Cursor, and Claude Code
- Automated root cause analysis across logs, metrics, and traces
- Debug incidents faster by letting AI validate your hypothesis
Debug in minutes, not hours. AI does the heavy lifting
Predictable, transparent pricing
- S3 as primary storage — no surprise IO cost spikes
- No per-series cardinality penalties or label limits
- Compute-storage separation eliminates idle resource costs
- Sub-linear pricing as you scale
Same cost as self-hosted Loki, none of the headaches
Self-Hosted Loki vs Oodle
9+ stateful microservices to deploy, scale, and maintain
Fully managed — ship logs and search. Zero infrastructure.
Based on official Grafana Loki architecture
Up to 3× lower cost than Grafana Cloud Loki

Fully managed
*Assumptions: 30d retention. Oodle pricing is usage-based with no minimum commitment.
Grafana Cloud pricing adds up fast — log ingestion, active series, user seats, and Kubernetes monitoring are all billed separately. Oodle keeps it simple: per-GB and per-series pricing with no per-user or per-host charges.
Get started in minutes
Keep your existing log shippers. Just add Oodle as a second output — or replace Loki entirely.
Your existing instrumentation works out of the box with Oodle.
Migrate in Under a Week
Keep shipping logs to Loki while you verify Oodle. Zero data loss, zero downtime.
How to Switch
Configure Dual-Ship
15 minsAdd Oodle as a second output in your Grafana Alloy, Vector, Fluent Bit, or OTel Collector config. Logs flow to both Loki and Oodle in parallel.
View docsVerify & Compare
1-3 daysUse Oodle's OpenSearch-compatible UI for your day-to-day workflows. Verify log completeness, search speed, and dashboard parity side-by-side with Loki.
Cutover
15 minsRemove Loki output from your shipper config. Decommission ingesters, compactors, and the rest of the Loki cluster.
Who is Switching
“Switching to Oodle has been remarkable — dashboards load much faster. It took less than 6 hours to achieve 4x cost reduction.”
