I'm using OpenObserve - it does logs, metrics and traces all under one roof. Handles alerts too.

It's been solid, but the UI is kind of clunky and a little buggy here and there. Dashboards are tricky to setup too. But it has no dependencies, and was easy to setup, and I couldn't find anything else that handled logs too.

you might want to take a look at SigNoz - https://github.com/SigNoz/signoz logs, metrics & traces in a single pane and you can create advanced alerts and dashboards as well

PS: I am one of the maintainers

I was able to setup SigNoz on the order of five minutes to view traces in my Dagger builds locally just by exporting the right env vars — it was nice to not have to run and orchestrate three+ tools together

Having to deploy and manager Clickhouse put me off a little - OpenObserve uses it's own binary format, so there are zero external dependencies, making it super easy to setup. Maybe Clickhouse is nothing to worry about, but it's something I've never used before.

Also, I wasn't sure if Zookeeper was mandatory even for a single-server SigNoz install?

SigNoz UI certainly looks more polished tho!

ClickHouse doesn't use ZooKeeper anymore, and if you're just using a single server you don't need to worry about coordination :)

ClickStack/HyperDX is a polished OOTB stack that has an all in one image you can deploy to get started, so you don't need to worry about the ClickHouse side until you need to really scale (which is where ClickHouse really shines).

[GordonS]

Interesting! Does HyperDX handle logs as well as metrics and traces?

[bonobocop]

Yeah, handles all the OTel signals

[sdairs]

Yeah metrics, logs, traces and can do session replay
