Hello there! 👋

Self-hosted is a big part of Sentry and has provided many benefits to companies and communities, helping them track errors and performance. I believe you already know what Sentry can do. Through this issue, we're aiming to be open and transparent about: (1) our priorities; (2) our backlogs; (3) the features you can expect to see in self-hosted Sentry; and (4) how to submit feedback.

If you want to submit feedback (not just asking for help or explaining what went wrong with self-hosted -- but also things that made you happy while maintaining self-hosted Sentry), feel free to comment on this issue!

For known existing backlogs, you can visit this GitHub Project: Self-hosted Sentry

What we are prioritizing

These issues are being worked on by us (in order of priority).

• Error upgrading Sentry 26.4.0: Migration explore.0007_update_numeric_attrs_to_bools is applied before its dependency sentry.1055_rename_regiontombstone_to_celltombstone #4286
• Backup import failure #3083
• Snuba Docker image includes .rustup and .cargo in final runtime stage, causing unnecessary 1GB+ size increase snuba#7516
• Reorder install.sh to update docker images before shutting down #4192
• Objectstore S3 backend implementation
• SeaweedFS consuming high RAM usage #4142
• Timeouts in large clickhouse eap_items_1_local #3952 -- New feature requires extensive clickhouse query, it's slow!
• Make custom certificates to work with non-Sentry containers #4193
• Cleaning nodestore_node table #1808 -- Current nodestore lives in Postgres and is causing lots of disk storage issues. We're trying to move to S3 or filesystem-based implementation. A draft for S3 with Garage is available here as a blueprint feat: Use S3 node store with seaweedfs #3498
• Enable logs for 25.9.0 release
• Support Podman (and Podman Compose) #369 -- PR link: feat(install): Adds support for podman(compose) #3673 -- supported now! Some follow ups are:
  • Lower Docker Compose version requirement #3839
  • Run integration tests with Podman #3840
• Enable uptime monitoring for 25.7.0 release -- Available now!
• uWSGI reports full listen queue #1573
• Enable Dynamic Sampling #1866 -- It is long overdue
• DockerHub reduced the maximum pulls per hour, causing people can't pull all the images properly #3593 -- We're there! Just a couple of testing and tweaks until we can fully say it's done
• Support ARM64 #1585 -- Available now!
