Cut Your SIEM Costs in Half
The Challenge
Security teams are caught in a cost squeeze—struggling to manage exponentially growing data volumes and increasingly complex data pipelines within flat budgets.
Flat Budgets, Rising Data Volumes
With security data rising more than 25% YoY and budgets remaining the same, Security Operations has a scaling problem.
Maintaining Ever-changing Schema, Complex Pipelines
Security teams frequently find themselves trying to reconcile field names and values with every data source update.
SIEM Licensing Complexity
Data volume-based pricing, feature tiers, ingestion limits, and hidden retention costs can lead to unwanted surprises.
One-size-fits-all Storage
Data centralization and mixing low-utility logs with high-value telemetry results in a data swamp, increasing SIEM costs and incident response times.
Limited Pipeline Visibility
Security data is critical to Security Operations, but pipelines span many systems, apps, and teams. Most lack observability for their pipelines.
Increasing Infrastructure and Compute Costs
With demand outstripping supply, your unit costs to store and process your security data are going up, not down.
The Solution
Axoflow’s autonomous data layer for security operations reduces costs at every stage of the data lifecycle.
Parse and Normalize in the Pipeline
Axoflow processes incoming data in the pipeline, classifying and parsing events into structured formats early in the flow. Axoflow filters out unnecessary payload elements and redundant metadata.
AI-Powered Schema Management
Axoflow takes ownership of the transformation process end-to-end: source-aware, schema-aligned, and production-ready, automatically.
Linear Pricing Structure
Unlike consumption-based licensing common in most SIEMs, Axoflow’s transparent tiers mean data reduction yields up to 50% savings
Tiered Storage
Keep security data where it’s cheapest and most useful. Data is accessible with federated search and the ability to route or rehydrate only what you need.
Complete Pipeline Visibility
Axoflow provides detailed metrics on data volume, event types, and transformation stages. You can visualize what’s contributing most to ingestion size and adjust filters or parsers.
Less Compute Cost
Automatically indexing fields in the pipeline for SIEMs yields 10x better search performance, which further translates to drastically fewer resources used by your SIEM to process the data.
FAQs
How does Axoflow reduce SIEM costs by up to 50%?
Axoflow reduces SIEM costs by optimizing security data before it ever reaches your SIEM. By parsing and normalizing data in the pipeline, filtering redundant fields, applying AI-powered schema management, and routing data to tiered storage, Axoflow dramatically lowers ingestion volume, retention costs, and compute usage—without sacrificing visibility or security.
Does Axoflow replace my SIEM?
No. Axoflow works alongside your existing SIEM as an autonomous data layer. It improves data quality, reduces noise, and lowers costs while your SIEM continues to handle detection, correlation, and investigation.
What is in-pipeline parsing, and why does it matter?
In-pipeline parsing means Axoflow classifies, parses, and structures security events as they flow through the pipeline—before ingestion. This removes unnecessary payload elements like empty fields, duplicated timestamps, normalizes schemas early, and prevents expensive reprocessing inside the SIEM, significantly reducing ingestion and compute costs.
How does AI-powered schema management help security teams?
Axoflow automatically manages schema transformations end-to-end. It stays source-aware, schema-aligned, and production-ready as data sources change—eliminating manual field mapping, reducing breakages, and freeing up security engineers from constant pipeline maintenance.
How does Axoflow pricing work?
Axoflow uses a transparent, linear pricing model instead of complex consumption-based licensing. When you reduce data volume with Axoflow, you see real, predictable savings—often up to 50%—rather than confusing tier jumps or hidden fees.
What is tiered storage, and how does it reduce costs?
Tiered storage lets you keep security data where it’s most cost-effective and useful. High-value telemetry stays readily accessible in the hot tier, while lower-utility logs can be stored more cheaply and rehydrated only when needed. Search ensures you can still find and use your data without overpaying for storage.
Will filtering and reducing data hurt security visibility?
No. Axoflow focuses on eliminating redundant, low-value data—not critical telemetry. Think about duplicated timestamps or empty fields. By improving data quality and structure, security teams gain better visibility, faster searches, and shorter investigation times.
How does Axoflow lower SIEM compute costs?
By indexing fields in the pipeline and delivering cleaner, structured data to the SIEM, Axoflow enables significantly faster searches—up to 10x better performance. This reduces the compute resources your SIEM needs, lowering infrastructure costs and compute credit usage.
Who is Axoflow best suited for?
Axoflow is ideal for enterprise security teams facing rising data volumes, flat budgets, complex SIEM licensing, and limited pipeline visibility. It’s especially valuable for organizations that want to scale security operations without scaling SIEM costs.
