You deserve to know what’s happening in your code. And while performance and code analysis is important, we’re starting with security because next generation app security is a game changer.
From performance to security.
While founding and running AppDynamics Jyoti & Sanjay saw first hand the transition to microservices and cloud-native architectures. AppDynamics was helping these businesses with application performance, but it became clear that security was a major challenge for these companies.
Jyoti & Sanjay realized that distributed tracing is valuable not just for troubleshooting performance problems, but also a key ingredient for monitoring application security and preventing attacks. Married with powerful machine learning, it had the potential to change app security and they made it the foundation of Traceable.
Traceable has raised $20M in Series A funding with guidance and investment from Big Labs and Unusual Ventures.
Jyoti believes passionately in software’s ability to change the world for the better. He conceived BIG Labs as a vehicle for “parallel entrepreneurship,” where he can co-create companies that can help define the future of software and technology.
In 2008, he founded AppDynamics, an application intelligence company that provides enterprises with real-time insights into application performance. Jyoti led the company as Founder & CEO for the first eight years, and as Founder & Chairman for the last year until its acquisition by Cisco for $3.7 Billion in January 2017.
Jyoti has been a recipient of many leadership awards, including Forbes’ “Best Cloud Computing CEO to Work For”, and “Best CEO” by San Francisco Business Times at the Annual Tech & Innovation Award. He was named Ernst & Young Entrepreneur Of The Year™ for Northern California in 2016. Jyoti received his BS in Computer Science from the Indian Institute of Technology, Delhi. Prior to founding AppDynamics, Jyoti worked at various silicon valley startups as a software engineer and architect. Jyoti is the lead inventor on 20+ US patents.
Prior to co-founding Traceable, he was VP Engineering for AppDynamics/Cisco. At AppDynamics he was responsible for the product team for Application Performance Management and Database Monitoring products. The innovation that he and his team built was critical in helping DevOps teams to lead the digital transformation at many of fortune 100 companies. The products at AppDynamics he was responsible for generated over half a billion dollars in revenue during his tenure.
As a senior engineering leader, he has been building complex enterprise software solutions over 20 years. Sanjay received his BS in Computer Science from University of Mysore. Prior to AppDynamics, Sanjay worked at various companies including Hyperion Solutions(Oracle) and Philips. Sanjay is an inventor credited with 10+ US Patents.

Every company deserves complete observability across their microservices.
This has been a difficult and expensive problem to solve, but we want to make it more accessible moving forward. That’s why our distributed tracing infrastructure is now open source for anyone to use for free.
While the machine learning and full security interface of Traceable will remain proprietary, the open source foundation will provide everyone with a real time view across their microservices.
