Hey @User Welcome to the SigNoz community! I have heard about Plausible and love its mission 👍 Do play around with SIgNoz and let me know if you need any help in setting things up. Would be happy to assist 🙂

Thanks! Do you monitor or know anyone who monitors their Clickhouse instance(s) with Signoz? Looks like Clickhouse has experimental support for exporting OpenTelemetry stats but it's not super clear how it all fits together

We haven't actually tried monitoring our clickhouse instances with SigNoz - but that seems like an interesting idea. Let me check more on this and get back. Is ClickHouse your main datastore?
I am guessing you were referring to this @User - https://clickhouse.com/docs/en/operations/opentelemetry/
u
Yeah exactly
a
you can also export the metrics in prometheus format and let signoz's otel-collector scrape it using prometheus receiver
This docs is for sending trace data. This can export data in zipkin format which too SigNoz can ingest. But using the URL engine is not the most optimized way to do this. If you do not deal with high volume of data, you can use it.

@User Thanks, yeah that makes sense. Would be cool to be able to have tracing from the app to database and back. This won't work with the Prometheus exporter, will it?
a
Correct..prometheus exporter will just provide metrics and not traces... for traces you need to do https://clickhouse.com/docs/en/operations/opentelemetry/#integration-with-monitoring-systems

Thanks! I'll give it a go sometime
