Portkey supports sending your Analytics data to OpenTelemetry (OTel) compatible collectors, allowing you to integrate Portkey’s analytics with your existing observability infrastructure.

​
Overview

While Portkey leverages Clickhouse as the primary Analytics Store for the Control Panel by default, enterprise customers can integrate Portkey’s analytics data with their existing data infrastructure through OpenTelemetry.

​
Configuration

Portkey supports pushing your analytics data to an OTEL compatible endpoint. The following environment variables are needed for pushing to OTEL: 
OTEL_PUSH_ENABLED: true
OTEL_ENDPOINT: http://localhost:4318
Additionally, you can configure arbitrary resource attributes of the OTEL logs by setting a comma-separated value for OTEL_RESOURCE_ATTRIBUTES: 
OTEL_RESOURCE_ATTRIBUTES: ApplicationShortName=gateway,AssetId=12323,deployment.service=production

​
Integration Options

Enterprise customers commonly use these analytics exports with:
  • Datadog: Monitor and analyze your AI operations alongside other application metrics
  • AWS S3: Store analytics data for long-term retention and analysis
  • Other OTEL-compatible systems: Any system that can ingest OpenTelemetry data can be used with this feature

​
Use Cases

This feature enables:
  • Centralized observability across your entire tech stack
  • Long-term storage of analytics data
  • Custom analytics dashboards in your preferred tools
