The Open Source Observability Distribution

Opstrace is a secure, horizontally-scalable, open source observability platform installed in your cloud account. It combines open APIs with reduced toil.

Highlights:

• Horizontally scalable for ingestion and queries.
• Durable with inexpensive long-term retention.
• Rigoriously tested end-to-end.
• Large efforts towards confident upgrades.
• Secure by default with TLS and authenticated endpoints.
• Easy to configure with GUIs and APIs.

We walk on the shoulders of giants; Opstrace contains all the open source projects you know and love in one place:

• Cortex
• Loki
• Prometheus
• Kubernetes
• and many more!

Quick Start

Install Opstrace in your own cloud account with our quick start. For example:

opstrace create aws <choose_a_name> <<EOF
tenants:
  - dev
  - staging
  - prod
env_label: try_me
cert_issuer: letsencrypt-prod
EOF

Besides AWS we also support GCP.

See our configuration reference for details: docs/references/cluster-configuration.md.

Don't forget to clean up when you're done:

opstrace destroy aws <choose_a_name>

Privacy

At Opstrace, we host a service that automatically provisions subdomains like <my_name>.opstrace.io. This makes it easy and clean to use the URLs for both humans and machines. To accomplish this safely, we require login via Auth0 subject to our privacy poicy.

Get in touch with us to discuss support for custom domains!
