    Today we're (@sprosvirnin and I) launching the first open-source release of IceGate - a Rust-native engine that stores logs (metrics and traces coming soon) in Apache Iceberg tables on your own object storage. Observability costs are out of control. Teams pay per GB ingested, get locked into proprietary formats, and can't use their own data outside the vendor's UI. We built the first observability data lake engine to fix this. This is our first release under Apache 2.0. We're building in the open and looking for contributors and early adopters who want observability without the markup. Star…

    Hello folks, We are launching OpenObserve. An open source Elasticsearch/Splunk/Datadog alternative written in rust and vue that is super easy to get started with and has 140x lower storage cost compared to elasticsearch. It offers logs, metrics, traces, dashboards, alerts, functions (run aws lambda like functions during ingestion and query to enrich, redact, transform, normalize and whatever else you want to do. Think redacting email IDs from logs, adding geolocation based on IP address, etc). You can do all of this from the UI, no messing up with configuration files. OpenObserve…

    Hello HN! I'm an engineer at Splitgraph and recently started learning Rust so I could make my first contribution to Seafowl [0], an early stage analytical database. Along the way I figured out a database hosting hack on GCP and wanted to share it with HN. It's a way to achieve "true" scale to zero database hosting that could be useful for certain side projects or spiky traffic situations. A recurring problem I've faced with side projects is the need for Postgres, but no desire to deploy or maintain new instances. So when I learned GCP's "always free" tier includes serverless [1] I got…

    Hi HN, I’m one of the creators of this project. We noticed that while many developers want to experiment with Apache Iceberg the "entry cost" is often high. You usually have to set up your own storage buckets, configure a catalog (like Hive), and ingest data before you can even run a single SELECT statement. We wanted to lower that barrier. We’ve hosted a production-grade Iceberg REST Catalog on BigLake with public datasets (starting with the NYC Taxi data) that anyone can query. You can point Spark, Trino, or Flink directly at the REST endpoint and start querying immediately. You do need a…

    At Arcesium, we needed a way to run SQL-driven CRUD operations, manage slowly-changing dimensions, and handle schema evolution on our cloud data lakes—without the overhead of spinning up distributed clusters or relying on vendor-managed query services. That’s why we built SwiftLake, a lightweight open-source library that brings Apache Iceberg and DuckDB together: - Lightweight & cluster-free: Runs as a single Java service with embedded DuckDB—no distributed infra required. - Full CRUD and SCD1/SCD2 support: Reads, inserts/appends, updates, deletes, and merges with ACID guarantees.…
