Keep your telemetry.
Use our engine.
While Simple Observability is usually fully managed, our Bring Your Own Storage plan decouples storage from the interface. You maintain your own Prometheus, Loki, or VictoriaMetrics stores, and we provide the managed UI and alerting engine.

Talk to our engineers to run Simple Observability with your own metric and log stores.

Good, we'll get back to you shortly to discuss your integration.
01
Bring your own store
Simple Observability integrates with your existing metric and log stores. We support Prometheus, Loki, VictoriaMetrics, VictoriaLogs, InfluxDB, and more.
02
Direct push from agent
The Simple Agent is open source and routes telemetry to your stores using your preferred protocol. Data can also route through our workers to prevent network bottlenecks.
03
Alert engine
Our engine queries your store ephemerally to power dashboards and alerts. We provide the management layer while you maintain full data ownership.
Technical FAQ
Why choose the Storage plan?
This plan is built for environments with strict data sovereignty requirements. It allows you to maintain full ownership of your raw telemetry within your own VPC while benefiting from our managed alerting engine and UI.
What data is kept by Simple Observability?
We only store metadata required to manage your environment, such as server names, lists of available metrics, and alert descriptions. Your raw logs and metrics are never persisted on our infrastructure.
How do I connect my own storage layer?
Our team will work closely with you to review your current infrastructure and determine the most efficient way to integrate your existing stores into our platform.
What are the network requirements?
The agent must be able to push telemetry to your stores. Additionally, our backend requires read-only access to your store's query API to perform health checks and power the dashboards.
How is data isolation handled?
We use an ephemeral access model. Our engine fetches required data on-demand, processes it in-memory to generate visualizations or check alert states, and immediately discards it.
Can I use this with an on-premise installation?
Yes. As long as our engine can reach your query API (via a secure tunnel or authorized endpoint), the Storage plan functions perfectly with on-premise hardware.
