The Reliability Engineering team at Unity Technologies – developers of the leading platform for real-time 3D (RT3D) content – build software products, frameworks, and processes to increase, measure, and observe the reliability and resiliency of their services. As their systems have grown, so has their need for an observability platform that could easily scale with them. Join Senior Software Engineer, Quality Greg Chambers and Senior Site Reliability Engineer Lukas Monkevicius as they recount their journey of migrating Unity’s metrics backend from Thanos to Cortex to Grafana Mimir and scaling it to over 150 million active series – and their plans to adopt Grafana Loki for logs and Grafana Tempo for traces next. They’ll also share how the LGTM Stack has helped them save millions of dollars by eliminating SaaS provider contracts.
