Unified Observability: Leveraging ClickHouse as a Comprehensive Telemetry Database

As modern infrastructures become more complex, traditional monitoring tools often struggle to provide a complete understanding of system health. This presentation will explore how ClickHouse, a high-performance columnar database, enables unified observability by consolidating metrics, logs, traces, and eBPF data into a scalable platform. Attendees will learn how fragmented telemetry systems can hinder root-cause analysis and operational efficiency and how ClickHouse overcomes these challenges by offering seamless integration with tools like OpenTelemetry, Grafana, Prometheus, and more. We will also compare observability solutions, such as Coroot, qryn, and custom stacks with Jaeger and Loki, to demonstrate how ClickHouse simplifies data management, enhances real-time analysis, and supports large-scale telemetry use cases. This session will provide practical insights into implementing ClickHouse for observability, enabling engineers to focus on system insights while minimizing infrastructure complexity.
