Parseable Hosting Live In 5 Minutes

Parseable hosting on xCloud lets you deploy Parseable, an open source log management and observability platform, and keep your logs, metrics and traces on your own server. xCloud runs the pinned Parseable 3.2.5 image as a single container, generates the admin password, mounts volumes for stored data and staging, and publishes the console and API over HTTPS. You send events over HTTP or OpenTelemetry and query them with SQL.

What is Parseable?

Parseable is an open source, columnar data lake platform that upstream describes as purpose built for observability. You send logs, metrics and traces through logging agents, OpenTelemetry, Kafka or plain HTTP, and query them with SQL from the built-in console, with alerting and dashboards in the same binary. A self-hosted Parseable keeps that data on infrastructure you run instead of a hosted service such as Datadog. It is licensed AGPL-3.0.

On xCloud the template runs Parseable 3.2.5 as a single container in local-store mode. The image is an xCloud rebuild of the upstream v3.2.5 tag, because upstream publishes no multi-architecture 3.x image, and it is pinned by digest. Datasets live on parseable_data and not-yet-stored events on parseable_staging. Object storage and multi-node setups are not part of this template.

From Sign-Up to a Live Log Console In Just 3 Easy Steps

A self-hosted log platform normally means a container, credentials, storage volumes, a domain and a certificate before the first event arrives. This is the same result without assembling any of it.

  1. Step 01

    Sign Up

    Create your xCloud account and pick Parseable from the OneClick catalog. Choose your domain and target server — there are no extra fields to fill in.

  2. Step 02

    We Deploy It For You

    One click. We bring up the single Parseable container pinned by immutable digest, mount the parseable_data and parseable_staging volumes, generate the admin password, turn off anonymous usage telemetry and update checks, and publish the console and API over HTTPS on your domain.

  3. Step 03

    Send Your First Events

    Save the admin password from the protected credentials and sign in as admin at your HTTPS URL. Then POST JSON to /api/v1/ingest with an X-P-Stream header naming the dataset, and open Datasets in the console to query it.

Everything Parseable Does, On Your Own Server

Parseable runs in full here: a log and observability backend with a built-in console, on your own domain and your own storage.

  • Logs, Metrics And Traces

    One platform ingests logs, metrics and traces, so observability data lands in a single place you control.

  • Query With SQL

    Query ingested data with SQL from the built-in console instead of learning a proprietary query language.

  • HTTP And OpenTelemetry Ingest

    Send JSON events to /api/v1/ingest with an X-P-Stream header, or use the OpenTelemetry endpoint described in the Parseable docs.

  • Authenticated By Default

    Ingest and query requests without the generated admin credentials are rejected, so the instance is not an open endpoint.

  • Local Store, No Object Storage

    This single-node setup keeps data on local volumes, so you can start without provisioning an S3-style bucket.

  • Telemetry And Update Checks Off

    Anonymous usage telemetry and update checks are disabled by default in this template.

Everything You Need To Run Your Log Platform 24/7

Managed hosting for Parseable, so the parts that keep it online are not your problem.

  • Parseable 3.2.5 deployed instantly
  • Image pinned by immutable digest
  • Admin password generated for you
  • Persistent data and staging volumes
  • Free SSL certificate
  • Server backups and snapshots
  • Server security updates included
  • 30+ server locations
  • Unused balance refunded

What You Can Do With Parseable

  • Centralise application logs

    Ship JSON logs from your services to one dataset-based store on your own server and search them with SQL.

  • Collect OpenTelemetry data

    Point an OpenTelemetry pipeline at your instance to keep logs, metrics and traces off third-party platforms.

  • Stand up a log backend without object storage

    Start with the single-node local-store setup and no bucket to provision, then back up the volumes together.

  • Keep observability data on infrastructure you control

    Run the console and API on your own domain with generated credentials and data on volumes you own.

Parseable vs Alternatives

Datadog
A hosted observability service sold by its vendor. A Parseable alternative to Datadog is open source software running on a server you control, with the datasets on volumes you own.
Grafana Loki
Grafana Loki has its own OneClick page. In a Parseable vs Loki comparison, Loki is queried with LogQL and usually paired with Grafana, while Parseable is queried with SQL from its own console.
SigNoz
SigNoz has its own OneClick page. It is an OpenTelemetry-native observability platform, whereas Parseable concentrates on storing and querying events as datasets with SQL.
Elasticsearch
Elasticsearch has its own OneClick page. It is a general-purpose search engine often used for logs; Parseable is built around observability datasets.

Hear what people are saying about us

See why agencies, developers, startups, and growing businesses choose xCloud to power their projects.

xCloud works really well, I am surprised by its performance being this the release version, I have tried many paid platforms such as runcloud, cloudpages or serveravatar, as well as free platforms such as CyberPanel, CloudPanel or Hestia Control Panel and direct competitors such as SpinupWP and FlyWP. Of all those that I have tried, the platform that works best for WordPress is SpinupWP and I believe that xCloud can reach and surpass that development, its roadmap is promising. Congratulations to the xCloud team, I hope they become the leading platform in the segment, it has all the potential to achieve it!

I've been with runcloud for the last 3 years. However, after trying xcloud for the last month, I'm switching over. They are on a roll with their setup.

I'm moving my servers to xCloud, a cloud control panel by M Asif Rahman and the WPDeveloper team. Their roadmap looks interesting and no, there are no team mates nor API limits with xCloud! #xCloud #wordpress #hosting

xCloud is like having an expert server team on call — without the big agency costs. It's given me back my time and given my clients peace of mind. Highly recommended for freelancers and small teams who want reliable performance and security.
Dumitru Butucel
xCloud isn't just a solution. It's like one of that friend who got your back when you screw things up pretty bad.
Waqar Ahmed
Trust me when I say, once people explore the potential of xCloud they gonna switch from other panels, just keep delivering the best tech, lots of love for the team 😍😍
Rahul Singh
So far my experience has been smooth like silk. I didn't imagine that configuring and managing a VPS would be so easy. As of today, I have deployed 8 sites. The support is good, and they treat users with respect, even if they ask stupid questions (myself included). For the future, I hope for greater flexibility in scheduled backups and more comprehensive and consistent documentation. I'm sure that within a few months, xCloud will become the leader in its segment. This community is amazing, and the Staff here is super helpful.
Massimo Villa
Came from cloudways then to runcloud then to xcloud. Looks like I'm staying here.
Gerson El
I've recently taken all of my Vultr-hosted sites and gotten rid of cPanel for them to substitute it with xCloud. I have to say, I'm really impressed with xCloud so far! The interface is definitely the standout feature for me.
Tony Lewis
I came from Cloudways and won't go back. Highly impressed with xCloud. Glad I gave them a chance.
Jared McDowell
I like xCloud better than RunCloud, but one thing I'll point out is that some years ago RunCloud was hungry for business, the support was outstanding, and the community was active and helped each other. Maybe it was sold, there was a change in management, or they stopped being hungry, but the quality of the RunCloud offering declined and it hasn't been moving forward quickly. My point is that currently the xCloud team has the edge and it is theirs to keep or lose

I had 150 sites on cloudways and am in the process of moving them to xcloud. Much faster and better priced.
Dan Spinoza
Dear xCloud Team, I have been using xCloud for some time now and am genuinely impressed with its capabilities and the flexibility it offers by allowing users to bring their own VPS for management. It's a fantastic service, and my experience so far has been very positive. Successful migrated 5 sites on a single server. Xcloud migration tool worked great. There were few hiccups with security plugin like MalCare but disabling the plugin prior to migration worked just fine.

Frequently Asked Questions

Feel free to contact us with any questions or concerns you may have.

Is Parseable free?

Yes. Parseable is open source under the AGPL-3.0 licence, so the software carries no licence fee or per-gigabyte ingest charge from the project. You pay xCloud for the dedicated Cloud VPS and the disk your log volume consumes.

How much RAM does Parseable need?

The manifest asks for 2 CPU cores, 512 MB of RAM and 10 GB of disk, and QA saw about 21 MiB idle. Memory and disk grow with what you ingest and query. The 6 GB plan is the entry rung and leaves room for real log volume.

Can you self-host Parseable with Docker?

Yes, and this template is Parseable Docker hosting without the setup: the xCloud-rebuilt 3.2.5 image pinned by digest as a single container, a generated admin password, two named volumes, and the console and API on one HTTPS domain.

How do I send logs to Parseable?

POST JSON to /api/v1/ingest on your HTTPS URL with an X-P-Stream header naming the dataset and basic authentication using the admin login. The ingested data then appears under Datasets in the console, ready to query with SQL.

Does Parseable support OpenTelemetry?

Yes. Upstream describes native OpenTelemetry support, so telemetry can be sent without custom plugins, and the Parseable docs describe the endpoint. Point your collector at your HTTPS domain with the admin credentials, and check the docs for the exact path.

Are Parseable ingest and query endpoints open to anyone?

No. Requests with missing or wrong credentials are rejected, so the instance is not an open endpoint. The generated admin password protects both the console and the API, so keep it private and rotate it if it leaks.

Is Parseable telemetry sent to its maintainers?

No. Anonymous usage telemetry and update checks are turned off in this template's default configuration, so the server does not report back or look for new releases on its own. Upgrades are a deliberate step you take.

How do I back up Parseable?

Back up parseable_data, which holds stored datasets and metadata, together with parseable_staging, which holds events received but not yet moved to the store. Local storage lives on this server only, so keep a copy elsewhere.

How do I upgrade Parseable?

The install stays on Parseable 3.2.5 until you adopt a newer template version. Back up both volumes first and read the upstream release notes. Nothing upgrades the app automatically, and a redeploy keeps the volumes and your datasets.

How do I change the Parseable admin login?

The admin username and password are read from the environment on every start. Edit them in the Environment editor and Save & Redeploy, then update any agent or collector that sends data with the old login.

Is there a Parseable cloud service I can use?

This page is your own Parseable cloud: a dedicated Cloud VPS running the open-source platform, with datasets on volumes you control. One tenant, one node: you decide who gets the login and what is ingested.

Can I cancel anytime?

Yes. There is no lock-in — cancel any time. Hosting is billed monthly and charged for what you actually use, so when you delete the server the unused balance is refunded to your account, less up to 10% in payment-processing fees.
