Show HN: Uptrace v1.6 open-source alternative to Datadog, NewRelic (opens in new tab)

Uptrace is an open source APM that supports distributed tracing, metrics, and logs. You can use it to monitor applications and troubleshoot issues.

The latest v1.6 release adds support for service graphs, Prometheus remote write, Grafana data source for Prometheus, annotations, and much more.

The main feature in this release is the ability to use Uptrace as a Prometheus data source in Grafana. Uptrace uses the original Prometheus engine, so all Prometheus queries should be supported and you should be able to use existing Grafana dashboards with the Uptrace data source.
