Uptrace

For an open source young project, your UI is pretty good. In fact that is what got me here to comment! Any mobile client sdk? Android/iOS you are aware of?

We have been using your hosted service for a while now and we are perfectly happy with uptrace, compared to jaeger the UI is miles ahead, I like jaeger for what it brought but…

Well, I had a delusion that Uptrace will have clean and simple UI, but I guess for others the UI is just as confusing. :( I think we've done pretty good job with…

As far as I understand the license you're allowed to self host this for free, so long as you're monitoring your own stuff rather than reselling monitoring as a service. I can see…

We use remote sampling. I don't have a ton of experience with Jaeger, but I've used it a lot, and implemented OpenTracing in a dozen or so apps. The benefit of remote sampling,…

The data is received via OTLP (Otel protocol) and almost immediately inserted into ClickHouse buffer table in small batches. Simple and very efficient. Tail-based sampling will…

Uptrace / Go process will buffer spans in memory for some short period of time (5-15 seconds). It does not work for long traces, but most traces are short. There is some…

We use a custom elastic storage on steroids with Keycloak integration for enabling multi-tenancy in Jaeger so we can do SLA tracking and reporting. So the answer is yes. I get…

> there is also some sense in NOT having to support different storages / plugins API and instead supporting more features that work out of the box I humbly do not agree. There’s…

Where is the clickhouse data stored, in the Docker container? For reference, here's what I'm using: https://github.com/Altinity/clickhouse-operator/blob/master/docs/storage.md

I've provided a Docker example so users can quickly try Uptrace without downloading and configuring anything. I don't use Docker to run anything besides examples so can't give…

Looks interesting. Can you share a couple of common use cases, say - for somebody running a typical saas app? Also, are there plans for an Elixir client?

You can use Uptrace to monitor routes/queries performance, errors, and partially logs (only Go at the moment and it is unofficial). Distributed tracing excels at finding the root…

OpenTelemetry Java should work with Android, but I haven't really tried it. Java supports true auto-instrumentation so it should not be hard to figure out if you have an Android…

This is quite cool piece of work. Would you please make a comparison between uptrace and jaeger?

Yes you are mostly right, we can open an issue on github and try to compare them, if you agree. This would be among the first things a user wants to know before picking up uptrace.

Nice, I'm using Clickhouse to build Luabase[0]. I saw "ClickHouse cluster support" on your roadmap, are you just using a single node right now? How are you handling persistent…

Got it. I might be missing something, but if you deployed it this way and needed to rebuild the Docker image, you'd lose all your data, right?

Uptrace looks really pretty interesting. I particularly like the query language that you can use to query your distributed trace data. This is the biggest limitation I have found…

For tail-based sampling, does it mean that every process in a trace will keep its spans in memory until the initial process 'ends' the trace? How does the flushing happen (e.g.…

This is quite cool piece of work. Would you please make a comparison between uptrace and jaeger?

This solution has some great ideas but there’s always “but”. Main things distinguishing this from Jaeger are on the storage side. Jaeger has pluggable span writers and readers so…

how is different from datadog ?

how is it different from https://signoz.io signoz datastore is built with cassandra and yours with clickhouse.
