Show HN: Open-source Kibana alternative for logs and traces in ClickHouse

Hi HN, Mike and Warren here! We're excited to share some (early) work towards our next major version of HyperDX. HyperDX makes it easy to visualize/search logs & traces on top of Clickhouse (so incident & bug investigations hopefully go by a little easier). For example, if a team is thinking of migrating to Clickhouse for their observability data warehouse [1][2][3] usually due to cost or data privacy reasons, they can easily throw HyperDX on top to do the UI layer for analysis and dashboarding in a dev-friendly way (aka not needing to type paragraphs of SQL to find some logs) Over the past year we've seen a ton of excitement in companies adopting Clickhouse-based observability stacks - but one of the biggest challenges we've seen is that the UI layer on top of Clickhouse is either clunky to use for observability use cases (ex. BI tools),

or too tied to a specific ingestion architecture to scale to every use case (we used to be in this category!). For companies that needed more flexibility in how their data is ingested and stored (usually due to running at a large scale), there's really no good options for a developer experience (DX) focused observability layer on top of Clickhouse (Shopify spent 3 years building it in-house!) Our current release works completely in the browser - and it does this by building on top of Clickhouse's HTTP interface, which our React app can directly talk to. This means you can actually try HyperDX in your browser on your own Clickhouse with no installation! This was fortunately easy for us to accomplish due to being full stack Typescript, making it incredibly easy to shift between server and client code. On top of this we've been spending time baking in performance optimizations to ensure that HyperDX can continue to leverage Clickhouse efficiently at larger data volumes. We do a few tricks like only fetching columns that are needed for the current search, and re-querying to expand the entire row if needed to fully leverage Clickhouse's columnar nature (40% faster, ymmv!) - or rewriting queries to use materialized columns to speed up Map column access when available (10x faster!). On the DX side: we support querying using both Lucene (ex. `fullText property:value`) and SQL syntax. We've found the former to be our favorite for how concise it is. Similarly for charts, our chart builder has been upgraded to accept SQL expressions as well, so you can leverage the full power of SQL, while avoiding typing paragraphs of boilerplate SQL for time series data. We also make it easy to switch between UTC/local timestamps! Lastly, we've added high cardinality outlier analysis by charting the delta between outlier and inlier events (a la bubble up) - which we've found really helpful in narrowing down causes of regressions/anomalies in our traces. We have a lot more planned for the full release - but wanted to get this out early to hear your feedback and opinions!

Show HN: HyperDX Local – Open-source Datadog alternative for local debugging/dev

Hi HN, Mike and Warren here! We’ve been building an open source local-dev-friendly mode for HyperDX (hyperdx.io). It's a single Docker container that lets you view logs, metrics, and traces for local development in a similar way you can use them for production (live tail, filter/correlate logs & spans, build charts, flamegraph, etc.) Basically, imagine you can run Datadog in a single container for local development. We does this by spinning up an OpenTelemetry collector, Clickhouse DB and HyperDX UI all in a single container - it only takes a few seconds to start and lets you start live tailing your local logs and traces immediately (and graph metrics of course). README (w/ demo gif): https://github.com/hyperdxio/hyperdx/blob/main/LOCAL.md We started building local mode as it became one of our most loved [1] community issue after sharing

HyperDX. It made sense - as we constantly use HyperDX to debug our own issues locally, and have found it to be a huge productivity boost for things like… 1. Tailing multiple container logs (and grepping/isolating them) without a ton of different terminal splits open at the same time. 2. Be able to sensibly view structured logs and correlated traces to debug local issues (because you’re using structured logging and tracing right?) instead of adding ad-hoc console statements that print out exactly what I could’ve gotten from tracing. 3. Testing telemetry are actually emitting/correlating as expected, before shipping it all the way out to prod and realizing I accidentally created a very expensive high-cardinality metric or a span that has the wrong properties. We spent some time packaging & tuning our existing OSS stack to run in a single container with less memory/space requirements by staring at `dive` to slim down the image and applied incantations from documentation until memory usage improved. Additionally we removed a few non-local-friendly things like authentication requirements and extraneous services. It still has all the goodness you’d want - so you can full text search your logs/traces, live tail all your events, view spans correlated with logs (and vice versa), create dashboards based on logs, metrics, traces, and is fully OpenTelemetry compatible - just point your Otel SDK/collector to http://localhost:4318 (or 4317 for the grpc folks) and you’re already good to go. I’m excited to share what we’ve been working on and would love to hear your feedback and opinions! Spin up the container yourself to try it out: docker run -p 8000:8000 -p 4318:4318 -p 4317:4317 -p 8080:8080 -p 8002:8002 hyperdx/hyperdx-local Main Open Source Repo: https://github.com/hyperdxio/hyperdx Hosted Demo (in case you want to play around in a cloud sandbox instead): https://api.hyperdx.io/login/demo HyperDX Landing Page: https://hyperdx.io [1]: https://github.com/hyperdxio/hyperdx/issues/7

Show HN: Ellipsis – Automatic pull request reviews

TLDR; Ellipsis is a GitHub app that automatically reviews, summarizes, and answers questions about pull requests. Hi HN, @hunterbrooks and @nbrad here, cofounders at Ellipsis. We’re on a mission to build an AI software engineer. So far, we’ve built the automatic PR review functionality we’re sharing with you today. Whenever a PR is opened, Ellipsis will automatically: - append a summary of changes to the PR body, - perform a code review, checking for best practices like DRY, descriptive variable names, etc. - check for violations of any of the custom rules you’ve provided The most common question we get is “does it work?”, so we’ve added a 7 day free trial. Here are some examples from popular open source repositories within the past week: - https://github.com/hyperdxio/hyperdx/pull/326 - https://github.com/relari-ai/continuous-ev

al/pull/43 - https://github.com/jxnl/instructor/pull/467 - https://github.com/ion-design/numi/pull/1 You can also tag @ellipsis-dev in a comment and ask it for a re-review or to answer a question about the PR. You’ll get a new review for every commit that’s pushed to the PR branch. Our docs (https://docs.ellipsis.dev/review) have more info. Today, 17 companies, including PromptLayer and Warp (W23) are using Ellipsis. We’re working on the code generation component (ex: tag Ellipsis to fix bugs), but that’s still in a public beta. Ellipsis doesn’t store or train models on your code. Ask: Try it out, it takes 2 clicks to install at https://www.ellipsis.dev. Feedback? team@ellipsis.dev

HyperDX (YC S22) | Founding Backend Engineer | Hybrid SF/San Mateo | $115k - 180k We're building an open source, dev friendly observability tool (think Datadog, but something developers actually love to use and companies can actually afford). We're in the intersection of needing to build rock solid infrastructure ingesting TBs of data, searching it incredibly quickly and scalably, and layering on top a buttery smooth DX from our language-specific SDKs, APIs and web app. We're super early and hiring our first founding engineer. We already have a cloud product customers pay for and love, loads of runway regardless of the wider economy, 5k+ Github stars, and tons of hard technical problems. The vast majority of our work is open source, so you can get a sense of what you'd be working with here: https://github.com/hyperdxio/hyperdx Our job lis
