Hey Folks !! 👋 As part of the Dot Metrics Migration, we have deprecated the exporter

clickhousemetricswrite

, and only the Dot Metrics exporter

signozclickhousemetrics

will remain available. Please remove the deprecated exporter from your setup by following the instructions in the guide, as the final step in completing the Dot Metrics Migration. Please also take a look at our changelog for more details on the new release v0.89.0: https://signoz.io/changelog/

Folks, we're fixing some papercut issues on the dashboard and we were exploring a small update - making the span representations less rounded. Here's an after vs before :

Hey folks!! 👋 We've been working on improving our statistics reporting configuration based on community feedback and reported issues that needed addressing. Issues we identified: • Telemetry not getting disabled even after setting the required flags • ClickHouse queries continue running, causing CPU spikes even when telemetry is "disabled" • Frontend analytics trackers remain active even after changes in instance configurations What we've fixed: • Introduced a single, clear configuration option to disable or enable analytics across the entire product • Updated which statistics are being reported • Ensured that when you disable telemetry, it is completely disabled - no exceptions • Check out the docs for all details on Statistics Reporting: https://signoz.io/docs/telemetry

Hey folks!! Make sure to configure the JWT secret key to sign and verify all user session tokens. Setting this secret is essential for maintaining the security of your SigNoz instance Follow the docs: https://signoz.io/docs/manage/administrator-guide/configuration/jwt-secret/

Hey folks! We just dropped a fresh blog on the basics of OpenTelemetry: a go-to guide for anyone starting their observability journey. It covers: • What is OpenTelemetry (OTel) • What OTel is not • OpenTelemetry Specifications & why they matter • How OTel works under the hood • Why it's gaining massive adoption • Whether you're new to observability or just tired of fragmented tooling, this guide will help you understand the "why" and "how" of OTel. 👉 Give it a read: https://signoz.io/blog/what-is-opentelemetry/ Perfect for beginners, curious engineers, or teams considering standardising on OTel!

Helloo! Read my latest blog on how you can use OpenTelemetry to observe your kafka systems and get deep insights. Kafka has become almost a staple in all our systems, but its asynchronous nature makes it notoriously hard to monitor. If this sounds like a pain-point you’ve come across, this will be worth a read! https://signoz.io/blog/shedding-light-on-kafkas-black-box-problem/ If you have any interesting ways of observing your kafka systems today! Do share :))

<!here> 👋 Big News for our open source users - our open source community edition is now available with SSO (Google OAuth) and API keys 🚀 For a long time, the ask for these features in our Community Edition has been persistent. We've been listening, and we're incredibly proud to deliver on these requests, empowering more users to experience a seamless, secure, and integrated observability experience with SigNoz. With SSO, our open source users will be able to streamline the login process and also enhance security by centralising authentication.

Launch Week Day 3: Third-Party API Monitoring is Live! 🚦 Yesterday was all about metrics. Today, we’re thrilled to launch something you’ve been asking for: real-time visibility into every third-party API your app depends on! Ever wondered: • “Is a vendor API slowing us down?” • “Which internal service is actually impacted?” • “How can I catch errors and latency from external calls instantly?” Now you can: • Track every external API call-errors, latency, and volumes-in one place. • Instantly see which service is affected when a vendor hiccups. • Troubleshoot faster, with zero guesswork. We’re demoing it live and answering all your questions-join us now: https://www.linkedin.com/events/thirdpartyapimonitoringpoweredb7325856959461576705/theater/ As always, drop your feedback and questions here or ping us directly!

Hey guys! WE are BACK with another blog! ❤️ This one would be useful if you are thinking of ways to optimise your OpenTelemetry Collector in an attempt to reduce noise and costs as well! We've covered some solid methods including, • Filtering of traces • Sampling - with an example of tail-based sampler • Dropping logs based on sev level • And our own ingestion guard If you guys are hooked take a look at this! If you would like a part two (mainly around what you can do at an SDK level) give us some reactions!

Hi, can someone please help here? Thanks

Traces + Aggregate Every—Why does changing aggregate every to less than 60 seconds not work? What if I need to see aggregate per second?

Launch Week Day 2: Metrics Explorer is Live! 🌟 Yesterday, we tackled deep temporal observability. Today we’re excited to roll out something many of you have asked for: Metrics Explorer. If you’ve ever wondered: • “What metrics are actually being sent to SigNoz?” • “Which ones are eating up my ingestion quota?” • “How do I quickly find, filter, and analyze metrics before building dashboards or alerts?” Metrics Explorer is built for you. You can now: • Instantly see all metrics being ingested-types, counts, cardinality, and labels-in one place. • Search, filter, and query metrics directly, without hunting through dashboards. • Spot high-cardinality or noisy metrics, optimize what you send, and build dashboards/alerts right from exploration. We are demoing how it works, how to use it to troubleshoot faster, and what’s coming next. Join the live session now: LinkedIn | As always, would love your feedback and questions-drop them here or ping us directly!

<!channel> 👋 🚀 SigNoz Launch Week 4.0 Day 1 is Live! Today we’re excited to roll out Deep Temporal Observability, a feature built from your requests for better visibility into Temporal workflows. If you’ve ever struggled to debug async workflows or wanted to jump straight from a workflow metric spike to the exact logs and traces for that execution, this is for you. With our new integration, you can: • Correlate metrics, logs, and traces for Temporal in one place • Break down workflow latency by type, activity, or task queue • Instantly pivot from metrics to traces or logs for root cause analysis • Set up smarter alerts and dashboards for workflow health and worker performance Join us as @Pranay and @Ankit Nayan discuss the feature live on below links: • LinkedIn • You can also read more about it here: https://signoz.io/blog/deep-temporal-observability/ Would love your feedback and questions. Let us know what you think or what you’d like to see next in this feature.

CloudWatch is good especially if you live entirely in the AWS ecosystem. But is it time to take a step back and ask if it is still enough for modern observability needs? Well, we did the homework for you. After digging through user reviews, benchmarks, pricing docs, and some hands-on testing, we’ve detailed 6 silent traps in CloudWatch that could be hurting your observability. 🚩 Here’s what we covered: • Metrics API limits • Log query concurrency bottlenecks • Cost unpredictability • Fragmented signals • Trace performance at high volume • User experience and dashboard friction We’ve compared CloudWatch head-to-head with modern observability platforms with data, not fluff, so you don’t have to! 📖 Read the blog here Also curious, anyone here who churned out of CloudWatch? 👀

Hi team, after upgrade signoz from 0.79.1 to 0.82.1, in Light theme, span visualization become very difficult to see in trace explorer. is this a bug?

Hi team, I am using a dashboard

Panel Type: Number

with

Unit: Percent (0.0-1.0)

with the

Formula: A/(A+B)

and the number value is pretty much always 100%. The following recent example displays as 100%: A/(A+B) where: A = 3996357 B = 434 3996357 / (3996357+434) = 0.999891413 Is it possible to display 99.98% ?

<!channel> 👋 5 days to go for SigNoz Launch Week 4.0 🚀 From May 12 - 16 (9:00 AM PDT), we will be going live with 5 new features recently shipped in SigNoz and the story behind them. On day 1, we go live with Deep Temporal Observability. 🙌 We’ve stitched together metrics, logs, and traces for Temporal workflows so you can jump from a workflow metric spike straight to the exact logs and traces for that run, and finally see how everything played out across your system. Other features planned for the launch week: • Metrics Explorer - Search, Query, and Analyze all your Metrics at one place • Third party API Monitoring using OpenTelemetry semantics • CI/CD Observability Powered by OpenTelemetry • Tracing Funnels - Define funnels b/w spans in your distributed system Would love to have you join us for our live sessions and interact with developers behind these features. Register: https://lu.ma/0jqni8b0 See you at Launch Week 4.0 ❤️

Awareness around using OpenTelemetry for infra monitoring is still surprisingly low. Most folks associate it with traces and application-level instrumentation. But today, OpenTelemetry makes it super easy to monitor Kubernetes clusters, nodes, and individual hosts. With receivers like

kubeletstats

,

kubernetes_cluster

, and

k8sobjects

, you can collect detailed metrics like pod resource usage, node health, and more directly from the Kubernetes API. 👉 No separate Prometheus setup needed. Just plug into the OTel pipeline. If you're already using OTel for traces, or just exploring better ways to observe your infra, we wrote a blog that covers: 1. How to monitor VMs, K8s clusters, and pods with OTel 2. Whether OTel is ready to replace traditional infra monitoring 3. How to switch from Prometheus to OpenTelemetry If you are hooked, check out our latest blog!🌤️

Any plans to bump k8s-infra helm chart to include a slightly newer version of the otelcol than version 0.109.0?

Are the services back? @Nagarajan
