Pranay · Answer

< Ponomarev Kirill> Would love to understand what would be the use case for disabling auth

Ponomarev Kirill · Answer

I don t need the sqlite in this case and also if I m using kubernetes for signoz I can deploy openid provider for it Dex for example

Vishal Sharma · Answer

< Ponomarev Kirill> sqlite is also used to store alerts dashboards TTL status etc So removing sqlite will break some features of signoz

Ponomarev Kirill · Answer

Maybe I can use another database for that or another instance It s not comfortable if I m trying to make signoz stateless in k8s

Vishal Sharma · Answer

Yes you can use any other sql database by making changes to the codebase Any benefits of making signoz stateless

Ponomarev Kirill · Answer

Yes if signoz is stateless I won t need any storage for it in my k8s cluster

Vishal Sharma · Answer

But you lose many important features like alerts and dashboards

Ponomarev Kirill · Answer

Why We can store them in another db too But not at this moment

Ponomarev Kirill · Answer

Thats why I ve asked about sqlite and another db

Vishal Sharma · Answer

ohk you mean you want to use a db away from k8s

Vishal Sharma · Answer

I think we have something similar in pipeline We might move to postgres cc < Ankit Nayan> < Pranay>
