LISBON, PT / ACCESS Newswire / November 11, 2026 / SereneDB, the open-source database for real-time search and analytics, today entered the observability market through an integration with Telflo, the vendor-neutral control plane for OpenTelemetry. Together, they bring advanced, AI-agents ready observability to companies without putting their data privacy and protection at risk.

Today, most companies send all of their logs, traces and metrics to an observability vendor's cloud. That data is a detailed record of how a business runs: what its systems do, who logged in where, and, more and more, what its AI agents were asked and how they answered. Once it leaves the company, the company no longer fully decides who can reach it.

SereneDB and Telflo work differently. Telflo manages the data pipelines but never receives or stores the telemetry itself. The data goes straight from the company's own collectors into SereneDB, which runs wherever the company decides: its own cloud account, its own data center, or a fully isolated site. Under the US CLOUD Act, data held by a US-controlled provider can be requested by US authorities wherever its servers are. Keeping telemetry on your own infrastructure takes that question off the table.

"For European companies, this is a way to use the world's best tools and stay sovereign," said Alexander Malandin, CEO and co-founder of SereneDB. "For any company, it means full control over its own data."

SereneDB integration with Telflo prepares companies for a fundamental shift in how operational data is consumed.

"The main consumer of observability data is no longer a human, but an AI agent. SereneDB is built for that world. It stores logs, traces and metrics efficiently, ingests them at high speed and, above all, searches them faster than anyone else, with a complete unified view inside a single system. " explains Malandin. "That means faster, more accurate analytics, lower costs and less risk. When an agent sees the full picture at once, that can be the difference between catching an incident and missing it."

Through Telflo's CLI and hosted MCP server, an AI agent can switch on the logs, metrics or traces it's missing during an incident. That data flows straight into SereneDB, where the agent can not only scan it but also search in every way possible and get the most relevant lines back first, at the speed AI agents need. SereneDB has ranked as the fastest search database engine on SearchBench, an open benchmark that runs on OpenTelemetry logs, since its Krummelanke release in September. Demand is rising, with the global IT observability platforms market projected to grow from an estimated USD 2.9 billion in 2025 to USD 6.93 billion by 2031, according to a relatively conservative forecast from Mordor Intelligence.

"There's a lot in SereneDB's search that suits AI SRE agents," said Jason Agee, CTO of Telflo. "In SereneDB, the agent can leave out the noise and get the most relevant lines back first, increasing speed and, more importantly, accuracy. I also like that SereneDB's published benchmark runs on OpenTelemetry logs, the same kind of data these agents search. I'm excited to hear what teams think once their agents are on it."

About SereneDB: SereneDB is a real-time search analytics database that combines search and analytics in one Postgres-compatible, open-source engine. Founded by Alexander Malandin, Andrey Abramov and Valery Mironov, SereneDB is based in Berlin and backed by Entourage and HTGF. Learn more at serenedb.com.

About Telflo: Telflo is a vendor-neutral control plane for OpenTelemetry Collectors, built for AI agents as much as for engineers. Through Telflo's CLI and hosted MCP server, an agent can read what each collector in a fleet is configured together and change it without redeploying anything. Every change can be tested on a real collector against sample data before it ships. During an incident, an agent can use this to switch on the logs, metrics or traces it's missing.
