- GrafanaDashboards for everything observable
Dashboard sprawl becomes a maintenance burden. Learning PromQL or LogQL takes time. Self-hosting requires infrastructure.
- PrometheusTime-series metrics for cloud-native
Single-node storage limits scale. PromQL has a learning curve. High cardinality labels cause problems.
- DatadogUnified observability platform
Expensive at scale—costs surprise teams. Vendor lock-in is significant. Feature creep makes the platform complex.
- SigNozMIT-core OTel APM (logs/metrics/traces); Cloud from $49/mo
Open-core: ee/ enterprise bits (advanced authz/audit-class) are not MIT. Self-host means you operate ClickHouse. Vs Grafana stack/Datadog: all-in-one OTel product, not a la carte LGTM or Datadog SaaS. Cloud is paid after trial.
