Coroot, an Open Source Observability Platform for Database Users

What does it take to build an open source observability platform from the ground up, and where is Coroot headed next? In this episode, Nikolay Sivko and Peter Zaitsev sit down to discuss the story behind Coroot, its evolution over the past two years, and what makes it a compelling option for teams managing distributed systems.

The conversation covers how Coroot fits into the broader observability landscape, how it collects telemetry data from cloud infrastructure including AWS, and why it has become a practical choice for distributed SQL users looking for full-stack visibility without the complexity of traditional monitoring tools.

Nikolay and Peter also touch on the origin of the Coroot name, the key milestones since launch, and where the platform is heading, giving listeners an honest look at the open source observability journey from the people building it.

The episode wraps up with resources to help you get started with Coroot, whether you're evaluating it as a Datadog or New Relic alternative or exploring open source observability platforms for the first time.
