Okay the time has come. I am a happy Datadog customer, but for various reasons™ I am now looking for a self-hostable free or otherwise not-usage-billed, alternative.
For those of you who have worked with Datadog and like their user interface, especially around building out dashboards, which solution that matches my intro criteria that you are happy with using instead of Datadog.
I have tried Prometheus and Grafana and their Dashboard building UIs leave me uninspired.
