Lack of an Agentic Framework is a Security Issue
Because there is no Agentic AI framework, there is no way to enforce security.

SIEM problems start upstream, where data collection and routing are fragmented across silos. Ingext unifies that flow—collecting, labeling, and directing data to the right systems. This increases product effectiveness while reducing costs.

Every organization begins its SIEM journey with a cost problem — storage, ingest, and search all scale linearly with volume. But the real issue isn't price, it's architectural control. SIEMs are forced to process every record as if it matters equally, even though most telemetry is never analyzed.
Ingext is a streaming fabric that shapes, reduces, enriches, and routes data upstream — before the SIEM ever sees it. It drops what's unnecessary, routes dense telemetry to low-cost Parquet storage, and delivers only valuable, ready-to-use events to the SIEM. This architectural change reduces ingest volume by more than half while improving system performance.
Yes, Ingext lowers SIEM cost — but it does so by fixing the cause, not just the bill. When the right data lives in the right system, cost reduction becomes a byproduct of effectiveness.
Filter out redundant and low-value logs before they leave the source, reducing ingestion and transport cost.
Send dense telemetry to Parquet-based storage while routing only high-value events to the SIEM for analysis.
Reduce SIEM ingestion by more than 50% while maintaining full investigative visibility across all data tiers.
Elastic is powerful, but it was never designed to handle long-term telemetry at scale. Its hot tiers fill quickly, searches slow over time, and older data becomes harder to access — forcing a trade-off between performance and retention.
Ingext changes that by introducing a parallel, high-speed Parquet tier. All incoming data can be routed in real time — with notables sent to Elastic for correlation, and dense telemetry streamed into a low-cost, searchable Parquet data lake. You keep using Elastic exactly as before, but now with faster queries, lighter indices, and dramatically lower storage cost.
This dual-path architecture gives you the best of both worlds: Elastic stays responsive for alerting and dashboards, while Ingext Search keeps your historical telemetry instantly available for investigation — without moving data back into Elastic.
Route dense, low-value telemetry to Parquet instead of indexing it in Elastic. Keep only notables hot for faster, cheaper searches.
Search historical data directly through Ingext without rehydration. Investigate weeks or months back in seconds.
Cut Elastic hot-tier expenses by more than 50%. Store dense telemetry efficiently in Parquet with schema alignment for direct cross-tier search.
Notables → Elastic (Hot Tier)
Telemetry → Ingext Parquet Data Lake (Searchable)
Unified Query → Both in one view
With Ingext, you don't replace Elastic — you optimize it. You gain faster searches, lower cost, and deeper retention, all while keeping your existing workflows intact.
Traditional SIEMs were never designed to route or tier data. They collect everything, store everything, and charge for every search. Ingext gives you control — deciding what data to analyze now, and what to store for later — without losing search or visibility.
Deploy Ingext alongside your SIEM. No agents to replace, no pipelines to rebuild. Connect, configure, and go.
Keep expensive SIEM storage focused on notables. Route telemetry and bulk data into low-cost searchable archives.
Elastic, Splunk, Sumo Logic — Ingext integrates with all of them, extending capability without disruption.
Ingext operates upstream — before the SIEM — orchestrating telemetry collection, enrichment, and routing. It connects seamlessly to your existing environment, feeding both your SIEM and Ingext's own data lake without replacing agents or disrupting operations.
Most telemetry never earns its keep. Logs full of repetitive warnings, service heartbeats, or low-level file touches consume space and budget without improving visibility. Ingext filters and categorizes this data in motion — dropping noise before it hits expensive downstream systems.
This alone typically reduces 40% of incoming data volume — immediately lowering transport and ingest costs.
But Ingext doesn't stop there. It also routes dense telemetry — the low-value, high-volume data — into low-cost Parquet-based archives while directing high-value, enriched events into SIEMs like Elastic or Splunk. The result is faster search performance, cleaner indices, and dramatically lower long-term storage costs.
Independent studies have shown that routing telemetry into a data lake can reduce analytical data volume by as much as 95%.

By handling telemetry intelligently at the source, Ingext turns cost control into performance — and makes your data pipeline finally work for you.
Ingext acts as the gateway between data collection and consumption. It doesn’t replace your tools — it connects them. Each stage of the pipeline is built for one purpose: move the right data to the right place, cleanly and efficiently.
What Happens:
Unified pipeline for Syslog, API, HEC
Why It Matters:
Simplifies onboarding
What Happens:
Enrich & normalize data inline
Why It Matters:
Clean, usable logs everywhere
What Happens:
Send valuable events to SIEM, archive dense telemetry
Why It Matters:
Cuts storage cost by 50%+
Ingext isn’t another analytics product — it’s the missing layer that makes every analytics product work better. By fixing how data moves, it improves how your entire infrastructure performs. The result is simple: lower cost, higher reliability, and a clearer picture of what’s happening in your environment.
Deploy Ingext to simplify pipelines, cut costs, and expand what your SIEM can do.
Ingext Search unites your SIEM with long-term telemetry storage — giving analysts full visibility across hot, warm, and cold tiers. No rehydration, no waiting. Just instant access to every record when it matters most.
Search notables in your SIEM and historical telemetry in your data lake in a single view — same fields, same context, same speed.
Reconstruct events in seconds — not hours — without moving data. Ingext keeps full fidelity telemetry ready for replay and correlation.
All searches occur through secure, auditable access paths. You maintain full compliance and data sovereignty while expanding visibility.
