Telemetry
In order to better understand community needs, Weaviate collects some telemetry data. This data helps Weaviate to identify usage trends and improve our software for our users. Weaviate collects this information by default, but you can disable telemetry at any time.
Data collected
On startup, the Weaviate server generates a unique instance ID. Every 24 ours the instance sends this information:
- Machine id
- Payload type
- Server version
- Host operating system
- Modules used
- Number of objects in the instance
- Metadata
Weaviate does not collect any other telemetry information.
Disabling Telemetry Data
To disable telemetry data collection, add this line to your system configuration file:
DISABLE_TELEMETRY=true
Metadata
Since Weaviate version v1.33, Weaviate will, when available, collect basic metadata from metadata endpoints it has access to on selected cloud providers. More info for: AWS, GCP, Azure.
