It would be nice if it can be replacement for logging stack, elastic is super hungry for ram
You can have a look at Quickwit (https://quickwit.io), it's a search engine made for logs :). It's still pretty young and... there are way less features than in ES.
(disclaimer: I'm one of the cofounder)
I don't see any mention on the website on how it compares to Loki, which is surprising since it looks like a very similar model?
Look at zincsearch. Its another lightweight elastic alternative and they advertise logging as a usecase.
