                <h4>Scaling</h4>
                <p>
                    100+ billion telemetry data could be collected and analyzed from one SkyWalking cluster.

                <h4>Mature Telemetry Ecosystems Supported</h4>
                <p>
                    Metrics, Traces, and Logs from mature ecosystems are supported, e.g. Zipkin, OpenTelemetry,
                    Prometheus,
                    Zabbix, Fluentd
                </p>

                <h4>Native APM Database</h4>
                <p>
                    BanyanDB, an observability database, created in 2022, aims to ingest, analyze and store
                    telemetry/observability data.

                <h4>Consistent Metrics Aggregation</h4>
                <p>
                    SkyWalking native meter format and widely known metrics format(OpenCensus, OTLP, Telegraf, Zabbix,
                    e.g.) are
                    processed through the same script pipeline.
                </p>
            </li>
            <li>
                <h4>Log Management Pipeline</h4>
                <p>
                    Support log formatting, extract metrics, various sampling policies through script pipeline in high
                    performance.
                </p>
            </li>
            <li>
                <h4>Alerting and Telemetry Pipelines</h4>
                <p>
                    Support service-centric, deployment-centric, API-centric alarm rule setting. Support forwarding
                    alarms and all
                    telemetry data to 3rd party.

                <h4>AI Power Enabled</h4>
                <p>
                    Machine Learning (ML) and Artificial Intelligence (AI) analyze observability data to identify
                    patterns and enhance capabilities, such as recognizing HTTP URI patterns and automatically
                    calculating metric baselines for intelligent alerting, improving anomaly detection.
