What are your favorite cloud-based logging providers which do not require a business email to sign up? (kbin.run)

I have been creating a bot using Node and would love to have a cloud-based logging solution to store my logs (since Fly.io monitoring isn't the greatest and doesn't store logs more than ~100 at a time). So far, I've looked at:

  • Coralogix
  • Logz.io
  • Sumo Logic

Sadly, all of these require a business email.

Since I'm doing a small personal project, I don't quite have one and I would prefer not to have to get one. I would also prefer the logging service be as simple as possible - this is a very small project and isn't customer-facing, so it really only needs the logging features (stuff like metrics are not needed and I'm handling exception logging with Sentry).

Lastly, it would be cool if it was cheap / free!

Thank you!

Have you looked into grafana cloud? I haven’t used it myself but they have a free tier. Or if you’re open to self-hosting you can run loki and grafana yourself.

I ended up signing up for Grafana and Loki, however Loki and Grafana Cloud Logs were both overkill for my use case. As a result, I ended up going with Loggly after consulting a Reddit thread and that has been working perfectly. Thank you, though!
