It's interesting that you chose mongodb as a backend. It may be a niche that is overlooked.

Most log aggregation tools are overcomplicated, require A LOT of resources, plus they still rely on storing log term data on S3 assuming that "everyone loves that!". That's not always true.

There are a few tools that try to utilize ClickHouse for a more centralized log storage that works better for small deployments. I found them too limited, or too focused on their enterprise offering (like signoz, which is much more than logs, but lacks some basics that are only in paid versions).

This project my actually be some nice middleground.

Kudos, looking forward for the future of this.
