Randoli is a Canadian-headquartered (Toronto, ON) OpenTelemetry-native observability and FinOps platform purpose-built for Kubernetes and multi-cloud infrastructure. Its architecture directly addresses two converging pressures on Canadian public sector IT: the Buy Canadian mandate and runaway cloud cost growth. Randoli’s core design separates the control plane from the data plane — telemetry is processed and stored locally inside the customer’s own environment, not shipped to a US-hosted SaaS backend. This means sensitive workload metrics, traces, and logs never leave the government network, directly supporting PBMM data residency and zero-trust posture requirements. On the cost side, Randoli provides full Kubernetes cost visibility — cluster-level, namespace-level, and workload-level chargeback — with AI-powered rightsizing and idle workload detection. The platform positions explicitly as the leading alternative to Kubecost, with OpenCost (the open-source Kubernetes cost measurement standard maintained by the CNCF) listing Randoli as a co-maintainer alongside IBM and contributions from AWS, Azure, and GCP. Randoli is a certified Red Hat partner with a published case study showing how the platform integrates natively with Red Hat OpenShift — the container platform used by SSC, DND, and major Canadian federal agencies — delivering in-cluster observability without external data egress. For Canadian departments managing multi-cloud and on-prem OpenShift estates, Randoli offers a self-hosted deployment path that eliminates vendor lock-in, reduces data transfer costs by up to 90% versus legacy observability vendors (Datadog, New Relic, Dynatrace), and aligns with the federal government’s sovereign cloud direction under the Spring 2026 Economic Update.
