Amazing product. We use VictoriaMetrics for quite a while, and previously used Loki and our custom Clickhouse/Vector approach for logs and we have switched to VictoriaLogs. It is much better and faster than Loki, same goes with custom CH/Vector thing we had. Kudos to the team, we are waiting for VictoriaTraces to switch Tempo instance to it for opentelemetry stuff.
Victoria logs is awesome and has put me at odds with my new devops hire who hates it and insists that Dynatrace can do the same thing for only $$$ a month. I tried using the their front end and it’s horrible. The API for Victoria is awesome and it’s fast.
We recently dropped-in VictoriaLogs for an old rsyslog setup. Extremely easy to deploy and admin, integrates nicely with Grafana. Definitely recommend doing this and moving to structured logging formats if you aren't already / are hesitant about the complexity of Elastic stack, etc.
I’m actually working on something right now where this can be extremely useful to me and I didn’t know about VictoriaLogs was using Loki. I wonder if anyone knows if there are other better alternatives or how this stacks up?

It ingests 70k lines per second without a sweat
reads are just as fast
Someone can correct me if I am wrong here - I don't think it's the case tho. Especially, it's competing against Loki and Elastic
