Ask HN: Open-source NewRelic / DataDog APM alternative?

4 points by vital101 6 years ago | 2 comments

I'm curious if there is a good open source alternative out there for NewRelic or DataDog's APM service. I see lots of options for log aggregation or server monitoring, but haven't found anything with application integration so you can trace transactions.

Moskito is probably the closest thing that I've seen. We've done some custom wrappers using JMX and other things but with sidecars instead of directly integrated to Java.

Prometheus & ELF (formerly ELK) stacks

Much easier to run if you are on k8s
