OpenTelemetry can be complex to set up, with a steep learning curve and heavy configuration especially in real-world environments. We’ve been working on simplifying that through our latest videos on SigNoz Collection Agents (Docker + Kubernetes).

We’re kicking off the SigNoz Collection Agents series 🚀 If you’ve worked with OpenTelemetry, you know how fast collector configs get messyespecially across Docker, Kubernetes, VMs. We break down this complexity using a real e-commerce setup.

CloudWatch charges you $0.50/GB to ingest logs, $0.03/GB/month to store them, and $0.005/GB every time you search them. During an incident, your query volume spikes and so does your bill.

We're a Bronze Sponsor at SREcon26 Americas! Come find us at Booth #3, The Westin Seattle, March 24-26.

26k+ stars on GitHub ⭐ Thank you to every developer who believes in open-source observability. github.com/SigNoz/signoz

Changelog v0.115.0 Chart legends in Query Builder now auto-populate based on your group by fields. No more manually writing legend format strings.

Thank you to everyone who joined our AI agent debugging webinar with @inkeep! What we covered: - AI agent architecture & observability challenges - Live tracing demo: agent execution, tool calls, token usage - Real-time debugging with OpenTelemetry - Continuous quality monitoring

This Thursday (Jan 29, 11:30 AM PT), we're doing a live session with Inkeep on observing AI agents in production. Engineers from our teams will walk through how Inkeep built observability into their agent framework using SigNoz.

We're a Gold Sponsor at Open Source North! 🎉 Our team is excited to connect with the open source community there. 05.28.2026 | St. Paul, MN See you at the event!

v0.106.0 Keyboard Shortcuts Enhancement: Navigate faster with an enhanced Command Palette (Cmd/Ctrl+K) supporting multi-key combinations like Shift+M+E for Metrics Explorer or Shift+T+F for Trace Funnels. Long-press Shift to display a visual overlay of popular shortcuts.

We kept seeing the same pattern with users debugging traces in SigNoz. They'd find a span that took 2 seconds, then open another tab to query percentiles and figure out if that duration is actually slow or just normal for that operation. So we added the percentile inline.

We crossed 25,000 GitHub stars! Q4 2025 was huge: 1/ Shipped our 100th GitHub release 2/ Launched Olly (our mascot) at KubeCon North America 3/ Hit 500 customers 4/ Crossed 25,000 GitHub stars to close out the year

SigNoz v0.105.0 SigNoz now auto-generates OpenAPI documentation for its APIs, making programmatic integration easier. The specification covers authentication, users, organizations, sessions, and preferences, is validated in CI.

AI agents are different beasts to monitor 🧵 @inkeep builds a framework for AI agents. Here's how they integrated @SigNozHQ to give their users automatic observability:

Authentication failures are hard to debug in distributed systems. So, we wrote a guide on modeling auth flow with OpenTelemetry: newsletter.signoz.io/p/eli5-auth-...

Changelog v0.104.0 Public Dashboard Sharing: Share dashboards publicly via link without authentication. Set default time ranges and control viewer access for easy sharing with stakeholders.

Changelog v0.103.1 Y-Axis Unit Formatting in Logs and Traces Explorer: Custom Y-axis units (bytes, ms, %) now available in explorer views, making charts instantly readable without mental conversions.

This is what full-stack observability should look like. 46% order success rate → click the metric → jump to traces → 502 error from external API → check logs → root cause found in 4 minutes!

Our CEO @pranay01 is speaking at #KubeCon today at 4:45 PM! How do you trace something that's non-deterministic by design? Pranay's got 5 minutes to show you. 📍 Nov 12 | 4:45 PM EST | Building C, Level 3, Georgia Ballroom 2

Olly's been busy making friends at KubeCon! Want to meet Olly and win some cool swag? Find him on the floor or visit our booth #1372: 📸 Click a selfie with Olly 📱 Show us your post 🎁 Pick a mystery box + grab some merch See you!

Olly is ready to take over the world! Well, at least the KubeCon. And yes, Olly did hit the gym before coming to KubeCon.

We're ready at KubeCon! 🧡 The team's at Booth 1372 and we'd love to see you. Come talk observability, grab some swag, and meet Olly! See you soon :)

Day 1. Let's go! Booth 1372 is open for business. Demos running, merch ready, team caffeinated. Come talk observability, grab swag and meet Olly (if you can find him) ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

"Who will monitor the monitor?" It's the question every SRE asks at 3 AM. We put it on a shirt (and a mug, and a tote). Stop by Booth 1372 to grab one.

3 days until KubeCon 🧡 The team is packed and ready. Olly's gear is ready. Mystery boxes are ready. See you at Booth 1372!

Olly's heading to KubeCon, and he's bringing gifts 🎁 Throughout the event, you might spot him wandering the venue. If you do, introduce yourself. He's friendly (just a bit shy).

We just shipped our 100th release! From building an open-source all-in-one observability tool to launching SigNoz Cloud alongside, it's been an incredible journey with our amazing community. Plus, meet Olly, our new arctic companion who represents the spirit of our community!

After 40 of us changed everything for him... Meet Olly. Currently: Packing in the Arctic Next Stop: KubeCon, Booth 1372 First trip outside. This should be interesting.

One week until KubeCon! We're bringing someone special to Atlanta this year. Come meet the team at Booth 1372 and be among the first to see what we've been working on. November 10-13 | Atlanta, GA See you there!

Changelog v0.99.0 Smarter Logs Context: Log details now automatically show the most relevant resource attributes based on priority.

We're heading to KubeCon 2025 Atlanta, Nov 10-13 🎒 Our team will be delivering 5 talks throughout the event and we'll be at Booth 1372. If you're going, come say hi. We'd love to meet you! signoz.io/events/kubec...

🚀 AI x Open Source — Bay Area community evening (Oct 22) Open source and open standards are essential for transparency, & interoperability in the AI We’re teaming up with Hatchet and Medplum to host an in-person meetup during Linux Foundation’s Open Source AI Week.

Changelog v0.97.0 We're excited to release our new alerts experience in beta with powerful capabilities: - Multiple thresholds in a single alert - Dynamic notification routing with routing policies - Custom alert grouping and re-notification control

v0.96.0 signoz.io/changelog Added share and feedback buttons to the header for easier collaboration.

Previously, our self-hosted instances relied on SQLite for metadata storage, which isn't suitable for production or high-availability (HA) setups. This was a major limitation for users running SigNoz at scale.

Debugging distributed systems often involves manually correlating spans across multiple services, which is tedious and error-prone. Trying to find a database error that originated from a specific frontend request is a common pain point.

Our previous query builder was a UI wrapper around SQL that lacked support for complex boolean logic. For any query needing an OR condition, users had to drop down to raw ClickHouse SQL. Query Builder v5 is a complete architectural overhaul to fix this signoz.io/blog/query-b...

Static dashboards are good for identifying a problem, but they are a dead end for solving it. A spike on a chart usually means leaving the dashboard to hunt for clues in logs or traces. Our new interactive dashboards change this workflow: signoz.io/blog/interac...

Finance: "Observability bill went from $2K to $23K. What changed?" DevOps: "More monitoring..." Finance: "Which services cost the most?" DevOps: "I'd have to ask the vendor." Most tools treat usage data like state secrets. You get a bill and good luck figuring out why.

Join Ekansh from our team in 2 hours for a live session on our new trace operators: luma.com/teqt5evr He'll demo the solution to a problem he faced himself: trying to find a database span with an error that originated from specific service w/o opening a million tabs.

Every engineering team has someone who's lived this nightmare. Hour 1: "This documentation looks straightforward enough" Hour 3: "Why are there 47 different config files?" Hour 6: "Maybe I need to install these 12 dependencies first"

After 2 years and 80+ closed issues, Query Builder v5 ships with: → Google-like search (paste error messages, get results) → Complex boolean logic with proper precedence → Queries that copy between logs, traces, metrics → No ClickHouse SQL needed

No matter how advanced the tech you build, getting the camera setup right is still a task. But they're ready to show you Interactive Dashboards that actually work like you expect them to. 2 hours to go!
