Case Study: Employment Hero achieves scalable microservices logging and faster time-to-market with Mezmo

Mezmo Helps Employment Hero Embrace Microservices at Scale

Employment Hero, which supports over 6,000 businesses and 250,000 users, moved from monolithic apps to a Kubernetes-based microservices architecture and struggled to maintain visibility across distributed services. Their self-hosted ELK stack was costly and hard to scale, lacked easy cross-service tracing and live tailing, so they selected Mezmo’s log management platform to solve those gaps.

Mezmo deployed agent-based, Kubernetes-native log collection with Live Tail, fast Search and Automatic Archiving to unify logs and simplify orchestration across services. As a result, developers ship features faster and debug confidently in staging and production, Mean-Time-to-Resolve has stayed steady despite greater complexity, and Employment Hero reduced hot-storage costs thanks to Mezmo’s archiving.
