Comment on Rybbit - Open source Google Analytics replacement
Goldflag@lemmy.world 3 weeks agoClickhouse definitely takes a lot of resources! There’s unfortunately no way around that, though in my experience it runs fine on the cheapest Hetzner instances which are like $3-4 a month for 2GB of RAM. How lightweight is your VPS?
And yea, you don’t need clickhouse for a simple static site. I chose clickhouse because it Postgres or MySQL does not scale well since the main site I personally use Rybbit for sends around 20 million events a month.
It pains me to plug my competitors, but check out Umami or Goatcounter if you want a platform that uses postgres.

Hey thanks so much for the engagement. I was trying to run it on a VPS that cost $35/year. 2GiB of RAM wasn’t quite enough to make it work for me, granted that was with the webserver and ancillary supporting services.
I’ll find an opportunity to test it out though, as rybbit looks great. I appreciate the mention on the other FOSS products, that’s a good look for you. I have plenty of experience with umami already. Cheers!
