Route every signal to
the right destination,
automatically.
PacketRanger is the vendor-neutral pipeline layer for your logs, metrics, traces and flows. Ingest from any source, filter the noise, transform in flight, and fan out to every modern observability backend — without re-plumbing your estate.
• OpenTelemetry-native
• MCP-ready
• Deploy anywhere

HOW CUSTOMERS USE PACKETRANGER
Put your telemetry to work
and stop overpaying for it.
Teams use PacketRanger to take control of noisy network and infrastructure telemetry, feed every tool that needs it, and cut what they spend ingesting and storing low-value data.
CUT TELEMETRY & TOOLING COST
Pay premium rates only for the data that earns it
Filter low-value events at the source and tier full-fidelity data to low-cost storage, sending only high-value signal to premium analytics and SIEM tools. Reduce ingest volumes, reclaim licensing headroom, and turn surprise data bills into a budget you control.
NETOPS
Tame NetFlow, syslog & trap noise
Reduce duplicate and low-value network telemetry, mitigate trap storms, and optimize flow-based licenses before the noise ever reaches your collectors.
CONSOLIDATE
Feed every tool from one feed
Fan a single source out to unlimited destinations — analytics, a streaming bus, and cheap archive at once — without reconfiguring a single device.
MIGRATE & EVALUATE
Switch backends without re-piping
Stand up new observability or SIEM platforms in parallel and cut over when ready — proof-of-concepts in hours, not weeks, with zero source changes.
COMPLIANCE
Send the right data to the right place
Enforce log levels, validate source configuration, and ensure sensitive telemetry only reaches the systems entitled to see it — with the analytics to prove it.
READY FOR THE AI ERA
A pipeline your team and your agents can both operate
Deliver clean, structured, full-fidelity telemetry that downstream AI tools and agents can actually use — and let AI assistants triage, query and tune the pipeline itself over MCP. Put the routine work on autopilot while your team stays in control of what matters.
SOURCES & DESTINATIONS
Connect the telemetry you have to the platforms you want.
PacketRanger decouples how data is produced from where it’s consumed. Add a destination once, route by rule, and switch backends without touching a single source device.
Stream to modern backends
First-class delivery to the platforms that define today’s observability stack.
• Splunk HEC • Kafka • OpenTelemetry • Cloud Storage
Load-balanced destinations
Distribute events evenly across a destination’s collection tier to improve query times and avoid hot spots.
• Destination Groups • Event Distribution • Failover-Aware
Aggregate proven protocols
The network and infrastructure signals you already run, normalized and under control.
• Syslog • SNMP • OTLP • NetFlow IPFIX sFlow
Low-code / no-code transformations
Reshape, enrich and mask telemetry in flight with a visual rule builder.
• Visual rule builder • Field masking • Normalize & enrich
THE PIPELINE
Five stages between source and destination.
01 · Inspect
See the stream
Decode and parse logs, metrics and traces automatically — no grok patterns, no guesswork.
02 · Filter
Cut the noise
Drop low-value events with simple word matches or full regular expressions before they ever hit your bill.
03 · Transform
Reshape in flight
Translate between telemetry protocols, mask sensitive data, and normalize fields on the way through.
04 · Replicate
One in, many out
Copy a single source to unlimited destinations for analytics, streaming and archive simultaneously.
05 · Route
Send it where it belongs
Destination groups and rules distribute events evenly and send high-value data to the right tool.
+ · Analyze
Baseline and alert
Volumetric baselines and anomaly detection surface trap storms, misconfig and drift in real time.
Why PacketRanger
Control of your telemetry, independent of any vendor.
Centralize disparate data types in one pipeline layer and stop paying to ingest, store and search noise.
Scalable & reliable
Each instance processes billions of events per day and scales to the most demanding environments.
AI & MCP integration
Connect AI assistants to PacketRanger over MCP — query pipeline state, investigate anomalies, and adjust routing and filters in natural language, always under your control.
Faster time to value
An intuitive workflow makes building and managing pipelines fast — proof-of-concepts in hours, not weeks.
Better distribution
Destination groups balance events across a tool's collection tier, improving query times and performance.
Unified aggregation
One layer for logs, metrics, traces and flows — retire the patchwork of single-purpose aggregators.
API-first & automatable
Manage destinations, rules and pipelines programmatically via a full REST API — built for IaC, CI/CD and GitOps workflows.
