How does this compare to Self Hosted Sentry? It looks like GlitchTip only requires 4 components (backend, workers, Redis, and postgresql). Self Hosted Sentry requires many more (at least a dozen, including clickhouse, zookeeper, Kafka, Redis, multiple backends, etc). Self Hosted Sentry seems pretty stable once deployed but it is a lot to deal with.
Self-hosted Sentry (on k8s) was a nightmare for me. Babysitting Kafka and Clickhouse at the same time is not for the faint of heart. For better or worse you're running their full saas product, but you can't get paid support for it. They want to push you towards cloud.
That’s fair, I think. In contrary to many others, they at least provide the code for their saas product - I wouldn’t expect them to try and make it even easier to not use their paid offering.
Ah the comparison wasn't to self-hosted Sentry, it was to other self-hosted software in general. Django and Rails project tend to take just a bit more to get deployed.
Also stability on GlitchTip has been great for me -- haven't had to worry about it or babysit it too much.
Very small scale but still quite promising.
Also note that there's a GlitchTip cloud[0] for people who don't want to worry about it!
I'd love to know more about what makes Django harder to deploy. Is there an example you're comparing it to? Is there a solution that you can imagine that would make it easier?
