Automatic Backfill

Data backfilling is a powerful tool for troubleshooting, but doing it manually can slow you down when you're racing to resolve an issue. This blog explores how to automate the backfill process using the Grepr Intelligent Observability Data Engine. By configuring webhooks with popular monitoring tools like Splunk, Datadog, and New Relic, or by using Grepr’s built-in rule engine, you can automatically trigger a backfill job when an alert is fired. This provides a complete, unabridged dataset for the time period of an incident, giving you the full context you need to debug without manually running queries—saving you time and making your workflows more efficient.

Why We Call Grepr A “Data Engine”

Grepr is an intelligent observability data engine that uses pipelines to process log data from sources like Splunk, Datadog, and New Relic. It stores data in low-cost S3 buckets, extracts key information into a standard format, and then uses a series of advanced processing steps like masking, tokenizing, and machine learning-based clustering to reduce the volume of logs by up to 90%. Users can tune the engine's performance with a variety of settings, including a configurable aggregation time window and a logarithmic sampling strategy, to ensure that important troubleshooting information is preserved while noisy, repetitive logs are filtered out.
