Thank you, really appreciate the feedback and encouragement! > It seems like clickhouse is obviously a big piece of the tech here, which is an obvious choice, but from my experience with high data rate ingest, especially logs, you can run into issues at larger scale. Is that something you expect to give options around in open source? Scaling any system can be challenging - our experience so far is that Clickhouse is…
> While we need to make money at the end of the day Honest question: What makes you think that you are not turning into a Datadog (price wise) once reach a certain scale? The problem what I see with software companies that the pricing is dominated by investor requirements and when a company reaches a certain milestone change up the licensing model and the pricing with it.
It's a classic innovator's dilemma - if/when we get there - it'd be a bit naïve of us to assume the next HyperDX isn't around the corner :) Anyone that believed in us on the way up - certainly has to believe that the same mistake will bring us down.
I'd also add that I don't think all services trend their price upwards. AWS has historically lowered prices on services and continue to offer new service-tiers with lower prices (S3 tiering as an example). As the tech matures and costs fall for our service as well, it'd be surprising if we don't do the same.

#153the idea of different features oss vs cloud has sense, but please, support email in oss, it's easy and makes the platform usable.

#154Wow, there is a lot here and what here is to a pretty impressive level of polish for how far along this is. The background of someone with a DX background comes through! I will be looking into this a lot more. Here are a few comments, notes, and questions: * I like the focus on DX (especially compared to other OSS solutions) in your messaging here, and I think your hero messaging tells that story, but it isn't reinfo…

https://www.hyperdx.io/docs/oss-vs-cloud
This page shows event pattern available for both oss vs. cloud. The blog doesn't mention exactly how this is being which would be an interesting read but I understand if a secret sauce.
I recall quite a few years ago a standalone commercial & hosted tool for doing something like this just on logs for anomaly detection. Anyone has any reference for similar tools for working with direct log data (say from log files) or in a similar capacity like hypderdx (oss or commercial)

#155Is there a guide for integrating this in local dev, either locally or if you want to view it on the hosted?
Ideally hosted, devs can bring up our app locally, and view their logs and traces etc when testing and building

There shouldn't be any differences with how you want to set things up for local vs production telemetry (in fact all our users test locally typically before pushing it out to staging/prod).
Of course if your local/prod run completely different and require different instrumentation, that might be trickier.
I'm wondering if you had a specific use case in mind? Happy to dive more into how it should be done (feel free to join on Discord too if you'd like to chat there)

#157Looks great 1. Are you funded? 2. https://www.deploysentinel.com/ - Are you going to work on this further?
Thank you - yes and yes as well w.r.t. the qs!

#158Very nice, congrats on the launch!
thank you!

Definitely, we want to make it easy to integrate arbitrary email providers instead of whatever vendor we happened to have integrated natively right now. It's not an intentional paid feature gate as much as it's just something we didn't get time to put in an OSS-ready workflow for the OSS launch.
We're thinking of being able to allow users to create a custom webhook alert so you can get full flexibility on what vendor you use and how the alert should be crafted, would love to hear your feedback there, though may need to ship some stopgap solutions depending on demand!

#160Looks very similar to what we're doing at https://highlight.io . Would love to trade notes at some point. One thing to consider with your messaging is that when you start speaking to large companies, they won't see you as a datadog alternative. They'll see you as a mix of sentry + fullstory + honeycomb. Datadog originally found its success with its metrics products, and the larger the buyer of datadog gets, the more…
It seems there are a lot of Datadog competitor upstarts - also saw Axiom.co recently, though that one doesn't appear to be open source. As a developer not well-versed in observability tooling I don't really have a basis for comparing all these.
