Console’s review

· Reviewed by David Mytton

What we like

Ingest data from official SDKs (Node, Go, Rust, Python), integrations (Elastic, Vercel, Lambda, Cloudflare), extensions (tracing for Python, Next.js, Zap), or generic endpoints like syslog. Powerful query language with functions, expressions, field detection. Use this to build dashboards and set alerts. Offers unlimited retention & no sampling.

Tradeoffs

Field names limited to 200 bytes. There is an option to run it yourself, but this brings an ingest constraint of \~1.5TB/day/vCPU and requires you to run Postgres + object storage e.g. S3.
