What is Frappe Framework?

Two trains ship the same features minutes apart while v16 absorbs the CRM stack.

v15 and v16 now release in lockstep: v15.118.0 and v16.31.0 went out the same minute carrying the same two features, a between filter for numbers and dates and an activity timeline that records edits, milestones, and sharing events. What separates them is what only v16 receives — a Recorder timeline for document lifecycle, a grouped settings dialog, Cloud Settings in Desk. Both trains carry the same breaking export change, where CSV and Excel now show linked-record titles instead of internal names.

What is Sumo Logic?

Sumo Logic is shipping OTEL migration tooling, query macros, and self-serve data deletion — observability hardening across the board.

Sumo Logic's recent cadence focuses on three coherent threads: enabling vendor-neutral telemetry (guided conversion of Installed Collectors to OpenTelemetry source templates, remotely managed apps via Source Templates, YAML editor for source templates), developer/operator ergonomics (Macro Operator for reusable query logic, query-when-fully-processed timing, quick actions in navigation menus, bulk insight updates up to 5,000), and enterprise/compliance plumbing (self-serve data deletion via UI or API, multi-org centralized role management, playbook execution history with cancellation).

Frappe Framework vs Sumo Logic: editorial side-by-side

F5.0

Two trains ship the same features minutes apart while v16 absorbs the CRM stack.

◆ Current state

v15 and v16 now release in lockstep: v15.118.0 and v16.31.0 went out the same minute carrying the same two features, a between filter for numbers and dates and an activity timeline that records edits, milestones, and sharing events. What separates them is what only v16 receives — a Recorder timeline for document lifecycle, a grouped settings dialog, Cloud Settings in Desk. Both trains carry the same breaking export change, where CSV and Excel now show linked-record titles instead of internal names.

◆ Where it's heading

v15 is being held at parity on features that are cheap to backport while v16 takes everything structural. The clearest case is the shared CRM and Helpdesk layer — forms, phone number fields, notifications, activity history — being folded into the framework so those apps stop carrying their own copies. Running underneath both is steady permission work: access checks on linked-record lookups, Report scripts restricted to approved methods, server-side Google sign-in, one-time codes for linked accounts.

◆ Prediction

Expect v16 minors to keep pulling app-level features into the framework while v15 receives only the small portable ones; the divergence between the two Features sections is already the reliable tell.

Sumo Logic logo0.0

Sumo Logic is shipping OTEL migration tooling, query macros, and self-serve data deletion — observability hardening across the board.

◆ Current state

Sumo Logic's recent cadence focuses on three coherent threads: enabling vendor-neutral telemetry (guided conversion of Installed Collectors to OpenTelemetry source templates, remotely managed apps via Source Templates, YAML editor for source templates), developer/operator ergonomics (Macro Operator for reusable query logic, query-when-fully-processed timing, quick actions in navigation menus, bulk insight updates up to 5,000), and enterprise/compliance plumbing (self-serve data deletion via UI or API, multi-org centralized role management, playbook execution history with cancellation).

◆ Where it's heading

Sumo Logic is positioning around the OpenTelemetry shift while reinforcing the enterprise admin surface. The OTEL migration tooling is the most strategically loaded — Sumo Logic is making it easier for customers to leave the proprietary collector path, which is the right long-term bet against Datadog and Splunk but creates short-term lock-in dilution. The compliance and multi-org features signal continued investment in regulated and enterprise buyers where Splunk has historically been entrenched.

◆ Prediction

Expect more guided OTEL migration tooling (e.g., dashboard/alert porting alongside collector conversion) and continued bulk-action work in the security ops surface. The self-serve data deletion path is likely to be followed by self-serve retention and data residency controls, completing the compliance-as-product story.
