I would love to be proved wrong on this, but most of the startups that are focused on:
- Observability
- Security / Compliance
Seem like they're plays by the founders to get acquired by bigger firms (either for acqui-hire or just to augment their own "observability and/or security" offering).
I would be very curious to see a company that really make it big and remain independent in this area. It seems to me like DataDog has been the only successful company in this area, with some other honorable mentions (e.g. honeycomb.io, sentry, sensu etc.)
