Yes! We definitely do - in fact this is how we develop locally, our local stack is pretty intricate and can fail in different areas, so it's pretty nice for us to be able to debug errors directly in HyperDX when we're developing HyperDX!

Otel tracing works and should be pretty bulletproof - metrics is still early so you might see some weirdness (we'll need to update the remaining work we've identified in GH issues)

You can 100% build tabular views based on JSON logs, we auto-parse JSON logs and you can customize the search table layout to include custom properties in the results table.

Let us know if we fulfill this need - we at least do this ourselves so I feel pretty confident it should work in your use case! If there's anything missing - feel free to ping us on Discord or open an issue, we'd likely benefit from any improvement ideas ourselves while we're building HyperDX :)

Edit: Oh I also talk a bit about this in another comment below https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=37561358




Since my comment is too old to edit now - musing on this a bit more I think this would be pretty awesome to turn into a well-supported workflow to have a low-resource-usage/all-in-one version for just local development.

If anyone wants to chat more about this - I've kicked off an issue [1] to gather interest and everyone's feedback.
