RapidScale provides a centralized logging solution for Sixth Street

Founded in 2009, Sixth Street is a global investment firm with over $60 billion in assets under management and more than 400 team members.

As a global investment firm, with a variety of bespoke and commodity off the shelf applications used by customers and employees across the world, Sixth Street faces the difficult challenge of building a cloud presence on Amazon Web Services (AWS) with a cohesive approach to application lifecycle management, alerting, monitoring, and logging.

To help build out and maintain Sixth Street’s centralized logging stack, Sixth Street enlisted the cloud-native log analysis service, ChaosSearch. This provided a platform for indexing, searching, and analyzing log data in a scalable and efficient manner.

Outcomes that matter

As a result, the streamlined centralized logging solution saved Sixth Street five hours, per engineer, per week, as well as additional headcount costs, enabling the engineers to focus their efforts on more revenue generating projects. “RapidScale provided an invaluable service when it came to architecting our original deployment to AWS. The architecture guidance helped us shape our account structure for maximum flexibility and maintainability,” said Dutko. “RapidScale continues to work with us through bespoke projects, ad-hoc support requests and professional interactions between our other valued partners like ChaosSearch,” he added.
