Uptrace – open-source APM (alternative to Datadog, NewRelic)

In plain words

Uptrace is an open-source application performance monitoring tool designed for developers who need to track and analyze application behavior. It offers similar functionality to commercial APM platforms like Datadog and New Relic, but as an open-source alternative that can be self-hosted. The tool helps teams monitor system performance, diagnose issues, and optimize application efficiency without vendor lock-in.

  Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client.
