Observability Platform

Last9 is a high-cardinality observability platform purpose-built for reliability engineering and SRE workflows at scale.

About

Last9 is an observability platform engineered for high-cardinality metrics at the scale that modern microservices architectures generate. Most time-series databases degrade in query performance and cost efficiency as cardinality increases — a fundamental limitation that forces teams to drop dimensions, aggregate prematurely, or pay disproportionate infrastructure costs as their systems grow. Last9 addresses this with a storage engine built from the ground up for high-cardinality workloads, allowing SRE and platform teams to retain full-dimensional metrics without the cardinality-driven cost explosions that occur with Prometheus-based solutions or legacy commercial monitoring platforms.

About

Plenty is a San Francisco-based indoor vertical farming company that uses AI, machine learning, and robotics to grow leafy greens and other produce in controlled indoor environments. The company has raised over $940 million from investors including SoftBank Vision Fund, which invested $200 million in 2017, and has positioned itself as the technology leader in data-driven indoor agriculture.\n\nPlenty's farms use precisely controlled light, temperature, humidity, and nutrient conditions to grow crops that are free from pesticides, use 99% less land, and consume significantly less water than conventional field agriculture. The company's AI systems continuously optimize growing conditions based on sensor data, learning to improve yields and quality across crops and growing cycles.\n\nIn 2022, Plenty announced a landmark partnership with Walmart to supply leafy greens from a new large-scale facility in Compton, California. This partnership provided both a major commercial anchor and significant additional funding from Walmart, validating Plenty's technology and business model at scale. The company also operates a dedicated strawberry R&D partnership with Driscoll's, the world's largest berry company, demonstrating the platform's potential beyond leafy greens.
