07/28/2022, 6:54 PMIn terms of deploying the SigNoz containers which ones can not be scaled? I assume the frontend and query-service can be scaled to N replicas while the alertmanager can only have 1 instance?

07/28/2022, 6:55 PMis it recommended to run more than 1 query service or any other of the above containers in PROD?

It does not make sense to horizontally scale OtelCollector Metrics, as it is used for obtaining metrics via pull based mechanism.
Scaling ClickHouse is done using

@Amol Umbark would be the right person to answer that.

nothing specific in query-service except that we use a sqlite db for storing users and dashboards. When we add postgres, it will become horizontally scalable

but usually querying is not heavily used unless we have too many alerts running at fixed interval. Hence we separated ingestion and querying to handle both the loads separately

07/29/2022, 2:28 PM@Alexei Zenin we had been evaluating PostgreSQL as a replacement for SQLite..
But due to lack of bandwidth, it is not on top of our roadmap.
