We’re truly sorry that you felt let down! You raise a great point that is worth clarifying though. All logs, metrics and future traces are stored in S3/GCS (and yes metrics are stored in TSDB format). While this does…
Thanks for the great feedback, definitely understand where you're coming from and we'll keep that in mind moving forward! Very much appreciate the constructive criticism!
Thank you! We like to simplify but not obfuscate!
Thank you! Yes, design is very near and dear to our hearts! If you’re interested in giving me some early feedback on our UX, email me mat@opstrace.com.
Thanks for your support! We’re still early in our journey when compared to the featureset Datadog has built over time, but we definitely aspire to bridge the best of Datadog and open source. Based on your experience,…
Thanks for your feedback! As with many in the industry, we are trying our best to figure this out. Our intention is to be really transparent with how we build and price software, which is why our commercial features…
Curious to learn more about the tradeoffs you’ve found between Cortex and Victoria Metrics and why you could be drawn to one more than the other?
Thanks for that feedback - we've got a lot of work to do to make that more clear! We're still early in our journey so we’re not there yet, but we’re moving fast. We're working on a new collaborative UI for interacting…
We certainly don't want to create an adverse incentive where you would consider limiting the number of devs who had access to the monitoring system. There are trade-offs but we think that per-seat pricing (like GitLab,…
Yes you can do this today. You cannot send this directly to Opstrace via grpc yet, so you would need to use the Prometheus remote write exporter (https://github.com/open-telemetry/opentelemetry-collector/bl...) with the…

We’re about to release a Datadog compatible API so you can point your Datadog agent at Opstrace instead (stay tuned for the blog post). Our goal is to be able to tell you exactly how much data the agent is sending and…
Currently you can only deploy to AWS and GCP, but we do intend to extend support to on-prem/dedicated servers in due course (see https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=25992237). Until now we’ve been focussing completely…
Great questions! (1) As it stands today, you can already use https://vector.dev/docs/reference/sinks/prometheus_remote_wr... to write metrics directly to our Prometheus API. You can also use…
Mat here (Seb's Cofounder). Great question. We are not only building a piece of infrastructure but a complete product with its own UI and features, rather than a standalone API. Our customer is the end-user more than…
