Sumo Logic got reach query language: schema on-read, aggregations similar as Splunk. The cost of ownership is way lower, by a big amount if your load varies or you can leverage different data tiers.

How do you compare to CloudHealth? I do cost optimisations for living and though there are a lot of tools, most of them are niche and doesn't scale well. For generic purpose I tend to use CloudHealth, but still we write a lot of script
