We considered building our new solution entirely in-house. But just because you can build something yourself doesn’t mean you should. While we were ¡n the planning stages, saw the entire cloud computing solution market develop. We realized this was the right way for us to go.
“Hosting isn’t just another service for us. It eliminates constraints around what we can do for customers. Now there’s no need to worry about what a customer’s hardware, system administrator, or hosting provider can or can’t do. GoGrid gives us the control over our environment that we need to build the best solution for our clients"

Stackdriver was founded on the belief that cloud hosting isn’t the future, it’s the present, and that monitoring needs to follow suit. Its founders, a pair of VMware alumni, experienced firsthand how difficult it is to monitor Amazon Web Services and other cloud environments. In addition to the founders, Stackdriver is full of engineers who had to cobble together bits and pieces of existing monitoring products to create a Frankenstein’s monster capable of monitoring their cloud environments (but terrified of fire). The challenge of building a product that does full-stack cloud-native monitoring was too much to pass up, considering how many of them had banged their heads on walls trying to replicate the experience. Its believe strongly that DevOps is here to stay, and that traditional IT monitoring solutions don’t work in the cloud. AWS made Software-as-a-Service easy and accessible; Stackdriver was founded to make Monitoring-as-a-Service just as accessible.
