Blue Medora, after selling its core monitoring integration platform to VMware, today changed its name to observIQ and launched an open source agent project that will serve as the foundation of a log management tool to be delivered as a software-as-a-service (SaaS) application. Company CTO Mike Kelly said the observIQ agent, which is written in the Go programming language, will provide IT teams with access to highly configurable agent software that doesn’t adversely impact performance. In contrast, existing open source log agent software requires IT teams to sacrifice one for the other, he said.

In the meantime, as log management heads into the cloud along with most other IT management services it’s also becoming easier for IT teams to manage applications from anywhere.
