VictoriaTraces

VictoriaTraces is an open source user-friendly database designed for storing and querying distributed tracing data, allowing you to store and query your traces in a simple and easy-to-use interface. It is a good alternative to Tempo, which consumes up to 3.7x less RAM and up to 2.6x less CPU.

For more information about VictoriaTraces, please refer to their docs.

Usage

You can find the port mapping (10428) from the “Networking” tab in the “Services” section.

Usually, you ingest the traces to VictoriaTraces with OpenTelemetry SDK. Then, you can query the traces with VictoriaTraces's Web UI at https://your-domain/select/vmui (where your-domain binds to the port 10428) and with Grafana.

By default, the data retention period is 14 days. You can change it by modifying the -retentionPeriod argument in the Command section of the Settings tab of this service. See Retention section in VictoriaTraces' docs for more information.
