Honeycomb Telemetry Pipeline


Note
This feature is available as an add-on for the Honeycomb Enterprise plan. Please contact your Honeycomb account team for details.

The Honeycomb Telemetry Pipeline (HTP) is a powerful, OpenTelemetry-native platform designed to ingest, process, and transform observability data at scale. Built for the complex needs of modern, high-volume systems, HTP provides flexible and efficient telemetry management. With HTP, your team can extract meaningful insights from your data and control costs without losing visibility.

HTP is composed of three primary components:

You can use any or all of these components.

Pipeline Manager (powered by Bindplane) 

Pipeline Manager is a production-ready, white-labeled version of the Bindplane product. It is designed for teams transitioning to OpenTelemetry (OTel) but not yet ready to fully commit to native OTel instrumentation.

Pipeline Manager is ideal for teams needing a reliable, agent-based data collection tool with centralized management capabilities.

Enhance 

Enhance enables you to store full-fidelity data in your own AWS S3 buckets and rehydrate it into Honeycomb on-demand within the UI. It is built to address pain points like sampling gaps, log proliferation, and costly third-party archival tools.

Enhance with Archive

Enhance your query results by rehydrating data on-demand from your own Amazon S3 bucket, right in the Honeycomb UI.

Pipeline Builder  

Pipeline Builder is Honeycomb’s in-house pipeline authoring and management tool, currently in Beta. It offers a fully Honeycomb-hosted UI for building and controlling pipelines while data collection and processing (using OTel Collectors and Refinery) run in your environment.

Pipeline Builder is suited for teams experimenting with next-generation observability architectures or evaluating Refinery in proofs of concept.
