tempo VS signoz

Grafana Tempo also switched from Protobuf storage format to Apache Parquet last year. It's fully open source, and the proposal is here: https://github.com/grafana/tempo/blob/main/docs/design-propo...

disclosure: I work for Grafana!

By combining Grafana Tempo with Tracetest, you can create a robust solution for monitoring and testing APIs with distributed tracing.

Last point: There's already a major open source project in the backend space called Tempo. You may want to reconsider the name.

I started the day with some Rust and spent the rest of the day in the Monitoring and Observability DevRoom. Most of the talks I attended were about OpenTelemetry and were very Grafana Labs-heavy. I knew Grafana and, to a less extent, Loki, and I had never seen Tempo (distributed tracing) and Phlare (profiling), and Mimir (backend for metrics, more backend-y than Prometheus?).

Grafana Tempo yes. Integrates seamlessly with Grafana (the dashboarding)

You should also check out SigNoz [1], we are an open-core alternative to DataDog - based natively on OpenTelemetry. We also have a cloud product if you don't want to host yourself

You might want to have a look at SigNoz [1] as well. We have also published some perf benchmark wrt Elastic & Loki [2] and have some cool features like logs pipeline for manipulating logs before ingestion

SigNoz maintainer here.

We also have traces, metrics and logs in a single application which makes correlation across them much easier. From what I can understand from Quickwit website, they use Grafana and Jaeger for UI.

Using user's private with no opt-out option is unethical.

If anyone is looking self-hosted for alternatives then they should try SigNoz: https://github.com/SigNoz/signoz

SigNoz is a great New Relic alternative that is open-source and provides three signals in a single pane of glass. You can monitor logs, metrics, and traces and correlate signals for better insights into application performance.

If anyone wants to check the project, here's our github repo - https://github.com/signoz/signoz

You need a backend to which you can send the collected data for monitoring and visualization. SigNoz is an OpenTelemetry-native APM that is well-suited for visualizing OpenTelemetry data.

Once the data is collected, it needs to be sent to a backend. That’s where SigNoz comes into the picture. SigNoz is an open-source OpenTelemetry-native APM that provides logs, metrics and traces under a single pane of glass.
