First, congrats on launching!

Second, to give your idea a change to take off, i'd guess that you need to:

- Bring the pricing to realistic level; You are asking for Splunk level monies for beta quality side project. $500 per month for 1m records is just really steep.

- Have clear messaging why your best-effort schema inference + sql queries from flat files would be superior to standard inverted index + full text search approach.


Hello HN community, today I have shipped www.rlog.io , it’s a side project I have been working on lately, I guess now I qualify as an Indie Hacker :). If you find the idea worthwhile - or you have any feedback - please let me know. Thanks!


I really like the idea and I think there might be a lot of demand for this kind of stuff. Did you already do consulting work for customers with this kind of problem? That would be a great way to kick-start the business.
