@@ -26,6 +26,12 @@ A Loki-based logging stack consists of 3 components: | |||
Loki is like Prometheus, but for logs: we prefer a multidimensional label-based approach to indexing, and want a single-binary, easy to operate system with no dependencies. | |||
Loki differs from Prometheus by focussing on logs instead of metrics, and delivering logs via push, instead of pull. | |||

This stack is lightweight, can be used as a simple alternative to super-heavy and full-featured search stacks such as ELK or EFK: |

This is great stuff but I don't know if we want this on the front page. I defer to @tomwilkie on this one.

@cyriltovena @slim-bean @tomwilkie any update?
I don't think this PR is in the spirit of the original issues referenced.
Rather this seems to be mostly heavily opinionated statements which are difficult to prove:
"Lightweight" here is not easily definable and doesn't really help people decide which to chose.
This is also subjective
C/S == Client/Server? I would say that Loki contains a client and server
This may be an example of how they differ, although I don't think you need to learn ruby to use fluentd?
This comparison should be limited to just Loki, not Grafana/Kibana |
This is a difficult subject, and we have to be careful to make defensible statements. Be able to site code or benchmarks, etc. But I think we really want the solution to those issues to take the form of a comparison of what competing systems do well/poorly vs what Loki does well/poorly so that users can choose the right solution for their application. |
@slim-bean something is my subjective look from my use case, something is not really precise. |
