For my small scale projects, Openobserve.ai has been super helpful. It ships as a single binary and (in non h/a setup) saves traces/logs/metrics to disk. I just set it up as a systems service and start sending telemetry via localhost. Code at https://github.com/bbkane/shovel_ansible/

Same, I love OpenObserve and shill for it a lot. Maybe more advanced users have more use-cases and I am blind to it but all three main pillars of OTel (tracing spans, metrics, logs) it serves very well for my purposes.

Thanks for this. I hadn't heard of openobserve before. It looks awesome.
