Introducing Foundry - a simpler way to deploy SigNoz
Foundry is a new CLI tool that makes self-hosting open source observability easier. Instead of manually managing Docker Compose files and configuration, you define your entire SigNoz deployment in a single casting.yaml file and let Foundry handle the rest. It generates all configs and deploys your full observability stack in one command. Supports Docker Compose, Systemd (bare metal), and Render. Check it out on GitHub.
Provision an admin user via environment variables
You can now configure a root admin user through environment variables (user.root.enabled, user.root.email, user.root.password, user.root.org_name) instead of going through the UI setup flow. SigNoz will automatically create the organization and user on startup, making it easier to deploy in automated or headless environments. When root user provisioning is enabled, self-registration via /register is disabled to prevent duplicate organizations.
Copy legend labels from charts
You can now copy the legend text from any chart panel with a single click, making it easier to reference or search for long metric series names.
Replace filters instantly from log details
When inspecting a log, you can now replace all existing filters with a selected field value in a single click. Previously, this required manually clearing all filters and retyping the value. Now it's one action directly from the log detail view.
Navigate logs faster with keyboard shortcuts
When viewing a log in the side drawer, you can now use arrow keys or the < > buttons to move between logs without closing the drawer. You can also click directly on any log in the background table to switch to it instantly.
Select multiple series on stacked bar charts
You can now select multiple legend items on stacked bar chart panels to focus on specific series. Previously, multi-select was not supported for stacked bar charts.
Self-serve password reset
Users can now reset their own password directly from the login page without needing to contact an admin. Clicking "Forgot password?" sends a reset link to the registered email address.
Bug Fixes
- Metrics using Rate and Increase aggregations now return correct values, including when the same metric reports with mixed or changing temporality across services.
- Metrics instrumented with OpenTelemetry that use standard unit annotations (like
Byfor bytes orbitfor bits) now display with correct human-readable formatting instead of raw numbers. - Charts with hidden series now correctly remember which series are visible or hidden based on their identity rather than position, preventing visibility state from shifting when data changes.
- Bar chart panels now calculate bar widths correctly based on the step interval, fixing panels where bars appeared too wide or misaligned.
- The "Show IP Addresses" toggle in settings now works correctly and persists as expected.
- The External API Monitoring page now shows a helpful guide when no data is available, instead of displaying a blank empty page.
