Cribl

The contract involves the acquisition of Cribl LogStream, a highly scalable and feature-rich logging solution designed to replace existing Syslog servers. It enhances logging capabilities by compressing data for transmission to multiple cloud environments such as AWS, and supports reliable data delivery via the TCP protocol from various external sources. A notable feature includes the ability to natively replay data stored in block storage, such as S3 buckets, facilitating the efficient reingestion of archival data back into enterprise logging systems. Additionally, Cribl LogStream integrates version control through GIT, providing built-in change management and tracking within its user interface, while using a central management server to configure and manage multiple child nodes. The acquisition will be conducted under the NASA SEWP V contract vehicle, designated as a small business set-aside, with the Department of Homeland Security’s Customs and Border Protection as the ordering agency. The performance location is Ashburn, Virginia. Points of contact for this procurement include representatives from CBP, with roles covering general inquiries and small business coordination, ensuring the engagement aligns with SBA small business participation goals. This forecasted procurement aims to strengthen DHS’s logging infrastructure and data management capabilities through a modernized, efficient, and scalable solution.
