Hello! I want to store the last month of Reddit's posts and comments and be able to search them fast. Is SigNoz a good tool for that?

I think you are looking for a database and not an observability solution. SigNoz is built towards observability use cases.

If that’s the case you can try out clickhouse directly.

Thanks. Most of the solutions I've tried are terrible, and made in Java
