SigNoz is a full-stack open source observability platform — metrics, traces, and logs in one. Datadog alternative you can self-host. Uses ClickHouse for efficient storage.

SigNoz unifies metrics, logs, and distributed traces in a single platform. Built on OpenTelemetry standards, it offers real-time dashboards, alerting, and root cause analysis without vendor lock-in. Self-hosted or cloud deployment options available. Significantly cheaper than enterprise APM tools while maintaining feature parity for most use cases.

Pros

  • Consolidate logs, metrics, and traces in one interface
  • Deploy on your own infrastructure for data privacy and cost control
  • Built on OpenTelemetry standards for vendor independence
  • Offers alerting and anomaly detection without extra fees
  • Reduce observability costs by 60-80% versus commercial alternatives

Cons

  • Smaller ecosystem and fewer integrations compared to DataDog
  • Self-hosted deployment requires infrastructure maintenance and expertise
  • Community support instead of dedicated enterprise SLAs
