Graylog was created in 2010 by Lennart Koopmann in Hamburg, Germany. The project started as a personal tool for centralized log management and was open-sourced in 2012 under the name GELF (Graylog Extended Log Format). It quickly gained traction in the DevOps and infrastructure communities, and Graylog, Inc. was founded to build a commercial offering around the open-source core.
The company is headquartered in Houston, Texas, with offices in London and Hamburg. It has raised significant venture funding over the years and serves thousands of organizations worldwide, from startups to large enterprises and government agencies.
