SigLens is an open-source observability platform providing log management, metrics, and tracing in a single Go binary with zero external dependencies, positioned as a 100x more efficient alternative to Splunk. The project has been officially archived and is now read-only under the Apache 2.0 license.

Use cases

  • replace splunk to cut observability costs
  • search and analyze application logs
  • collect logs metrics and traces in one tool
  • self-host a lightweight log management system
  • ingest opentelemetry telemetry data
  • query logs fast without elasticsearch cluster overhead

When to choose

  • you want a single-binary self-hosted alternative to Splunk or Elasticsearch for logs
  • you need logs, metrics, and traces without managing multiple backends
  • you want to fork a permissively licensed observability codebase

When to avoid

  • you need active maintenance, updates, or vendor support - the project is archived
  • you require a guaranteed long-term roadmap or community fixes
  • you need a managed cloud observability service
