Why Porifera

The Hidden Cost Center in Your Architecture

Enterprise data pipelines are bleeding money — and no one is looking at the root cause. The data collection layer, hidden under layers of tooling and vendor agents, silently drives up cost through duplicated pipelines, uncontrolled ingestion, and irrelevant data flows. It’s fragmented, vendor-owned, and not designed for real-time decision-making. Porifera was built to fix this — at the foundation.

Problem

The Data Foundation Is Broken

Traditional data infrastructure forces enterprises to adopt multiple collectors and vendor-specific tools, while paying for every byte of data whether it’s valuable or not. This leads to:

This results in:

  • Data Sprawl
    Data is collected multiple times by different tools, creating duplicated pipelines and uncontrolled growth.
  • Fragmentation
    Data is split across IT, OT, and IoT systems with no unifying layer.
  • Vendor-Owned Collection
    Downstream tools dictate how data is collected, filtered, and formatted.
  • Noise Before Value
    Irrelevant and low-quality data reaches analytics, SIEMs, AI, and digital twins.
  • Permanent Cost Inflation
    Redundant data drives unpredictable ingestion, storage, and processing costs.

Porifera was created to fix that.

Resolution

A Smarter Approach to Data Collection

Porifera was built from the ground up to solve these problems—not with another collector tool, but by fixing the data collection layer itself.

What Porifera does differently:

  • Runs inside your environment
    Porifera is deployed within your infrastructure—not externally—so your data remains under your control at all times.
  • Collect only what matters
    Filter and shape data at the source, in real time. Eliminate irrelevant noise, reduce ingestion costs, and focus on actionable insights.
  • Single agent layer, many destinations
    One streamlined collector per environment, delivering data to SIEMs, data lakes, monitoring tools, or custom apps—without duplication.
  • Technology agnostic and protocol friendly
    Compatible with IT, OT, and IoT systems. Supports open protocols like Modbus, Syslog, OPC UA, MQTT, and more.
  • Vendor-neutral architecture
    Avoid lock-in. Porifera integrates seamlessly across your stack without forcing you into a specific ecosystem.
  • Live configurability without downtime
    Adjust pipelines and filters on the fly to meet evolving data needs—no restarts, no redeployments.
  • Fixed-tier licensing model
    Transparent pricing based on your infrastructure—not your data volume. No usage-based surprises.

Built for Today’s Infrastructure

Porifera supports modern architectures and adapts to constant change:

  • Hybrid, on-prem, cloud, and edge environments
  • Secure and compliant by design
  • Easily scales across departments and use cases
  • Designed to evolve with your systems—not against them

Porifera gives you more than integration. It gives you data ownership, architectural independence, and long-term cost clarity.
