Transitioning from Datadog to Signoz: Query and Troubleshooting
TLDR Ronny transitioned from Datadog to Signoz for private projects and had several questions regarding service configuration, log filtering, exceptions, and removing default services. Prashant, Yash rV, and vishal-signoz provided helpful responses, but the discussion is ongoing.

Sun, 16 Jul 2023 16:55:31 UTCHi everyone! I'm very new so please excuse me if I'm asking dumb questions because I don't understand key Signoz concepts yet. I'm coming from Datadog for company usage and now try Signoz for private projects. I set up Signoz with docker-compose on a root server and configured a locally running ruby on rails application (development mode) to send metrics there. After doing the standard configuration my service is showing up in the service tab (yay), I can also see the key operations, listing my controllers and actions. But I have a few questions: 1. I wanted to see the logs for my rails application, but can't seem to filter the logs by service similarly to how it's done with DD - how do I do that? (I couldn't see any logs for my application yet, also not with the Live tail, I only found traces for my application but not the calls of the different routes of my application with the corresponding Params and HTTP Status code) 2. I added this by zero division to my WelcomeController and the exception was raised but it wasn't visible in Signoz Exceptions tab - why? 3. How can I remove the default signoz services from the service tab? Thanks a lot!
