We are thrilled to introduce the Humio Community Edition, a frictionless and free offering delivering the power of Humio’s streaming observability with 16GB of data ingestion per day and  7-day retention at no cost, available on an ongoing basis. Built for the cloud, Humio Community Edition streams structured and unstructured data and enables users with index-free searching, real-time alerts and live dashboards. Instant and actionable observability gives DevOps, ITOps and SecOps teams the timely insights they need to enhance performance across distributed systems and explore threats and vulnerabilities to build resilience in their operations and IT infrastructure.

Why We Created Humio Community Edition

We created the Humio Community Edition because we wanted the developer community to experience the power and speed of Humio. Traditional log management solutions are built off legacy software that tends to be slow and expensive. With Humio Community Edition, we’re providing the most powerful capabilities needed for modern observability. Humio’s modern architecture, including data streaming, index-free search and advanced compression technology, empowers DevOps, ITOps and SecOps professionals to break free from these constraints.

The entire observability community can now use Humio Community Edition at no cost to empower streaming observability, improve the quality and reliability of systems in real time and proactively prepare for the unknown. This helps teams prevent, recover from and quickly understand the root cause of incidents. With Community Edition, users have the real-time insights needed to enable enhanced performance and increased speed to delivery, encouraging alignment across teams.

“I want everyone to experience the power of Humio. With Humio Community Edition, Humio provides the most powerful capabilities needed for modern observability. Humio is able to ingest any data, structured or unstructured, in streaming speeds and at scale, unlike any other solution currently available in the market. Humio’s log management platform is unmatched in speed, performance and storage abilities, and Humio Community Edition offers customers unprecedented access to best-in-class log management that you won’t see anywhere else — for absolutely free. Humio Community Edition is a game changer.” — George Kurtz, President/CEO and Co-Founder, CrowdStrike
