Don't use Grafana for logs. Its (or any other basically, including Kibana or Graylog) interface sucks and I used Metabase which has much more friendly interface to show logs in tabular format instead of throwing raw logs like the others.

I collect logs with Vector on each instances and sent to central ClickHouse which Metabase reads from.

Interesting. I am already trying that with dBeaver and ClickHouse with docker.

Used this tutorial:

My services usually produce around 2GB of log data per day. From quick read on the CH I beleive it should not be a problem. Not sure how big the database it is but zip compressed log data is around that size for entire month.
