I’ve had my eye on this for a while. As a small startup I’ve been using datadog for a while but am hesitant to stay on it due to the expense. I like the idea of self hosting as well as being otel based.
Man I would love to self host this for a small project, but looking at the self hosting option, there's more containers there than my whole application.
However the CPU and memory resources used are very minimalist. On no load conditions, it takes around 0.3-0.5 CPUs and 1.5-2GB RAM
That’s the definition of minimal? 0.5 of a core while doing nothing?
Anyone want to share their personal experience with moving from Grafana to SigNoz? I really like the idea of this project but is it better?
the biggest advantage of signoz over grafana is that you don't have to use multiple backends. If you want to do logs, metrics, and traces in a single tool, then signoz might be a better choice. In terms of visualization capabilites, Grafana has more options but signoz is catching up on that.
