Getting Started with Managed ClickStack
Mark Needham
Managed ClickStack takes the open-source observability stack — OpenTelemetry, ClickHouse, and the ClickStack UI — and runs the hard parts for you. ClickHouse and the UI are fully managed, so the only thing you deploy yourself is an OTEL collector in your own infrastructure. In this video, we walk through setting it up from scratch and sending real trace data through it.
- Storage and compute separation — keep data in low-cost object storage and scale compute independently
- Compute isolation — run alerting and interactive queries on separate, independently-sized pools
- Start ingesting in minutes with a single Docker command for the OTEL collector
- Explore traces, filter errors, build charts, and save dashboards — all from the ClickStack UI
