hey everyone is it possible to set custom retention period for some metrics and not others?

As of now we don’t support it. But clickhouse does support conditional TTL, you can try to experiment with it https://clickhouse.com/docs/en/guides/developer/ttl#removing-rows

ok thanks also, can we customize the log explorer so the logs scroll in the opposite direction? im running self hosted signoz

change order by to

timestamp asc

. Though please note perf might be slower, we are yet to release some opitimisations on this.

does this apply to the live explorer as well?

no it doesn’t apply to live explorer.

ok thanks on the left, can i customize those filters i see

K8s Deployment Name

but id like to add

K8s Statefulet Name

as well

As of now you won’t be able to do that as well, but this feature is in the roadmap cc @Vikrant Gupta

ok thanks

4317 is for grpc and 4318 is http.

Hey Can I send custom data to the clickhouse instance used by my self hosted signoz? Is it advisable? And can I query the data in signoz

If you mean writing data to custom table using some another ingestor, you can write data to it but data need to be in right format to be queried from signoz clickhouse query builder (normal features won’t read those tables).

can you point me to some documentation of the format it needs to be in

ok thanks
