That's an interesting take for OpenObserve, but for me in an ops role it misses the compatibility. I appreciate that with Grafana I can choose a specific backend and configure it as required in my environment. I know other systems can reach the same database because they have known APIs. I also know I can move to another store with the same front-end if the owners pull an Elastic/Redis.
OO integration may save me a couple of days of setup, but long-term it's a dangerously limiting idea / lock-in.
