Reviewer scorecard
“Unlimited log ingestion changes how you think about logging. No more deciding what to keep. Query everything.”
“PagedAttention is a breakthrough for inference efficiency. The standard for production self-hosted LLM serving.”
“The pricing model is radically simpler than Datadog. Ingest everything, pay for queries and retention.”
“If you're self-hosting LLMs, vLLM is the obvious choice. Battle-tested and actively maintained.”
“Query-on-read architecture is the future of log management. Axiom's approach makes unlimited logging practical.”
“Self-hosted inference will remain important for latency, cost, and privacy. vLLM is the infrastructure layer.”
