Fixes #13751 ## The crash vue-i18n compiles messages just-in-time (`__INTLIFY_JIT_COMPILATION__`), and a compile error is **thrown**, not warned — it tears down whatever component asked for the message. The translation pipeline had been localizing placeholder *names*, which is exactly that kind of error: ``` en-US "Are you sure you want to delete {identifier}?" zh-CN "您确定要删除 {标识符} 吗？" -> SyntaxError: 2 (INVALID_TOKEN_IN_PLACEHOLDER) ``` IAM → Service Accounts rendered blank in Chinese for this reason. The two zh-CN strings named in the issue had already been patched by hand in #13707, but the *class* was never swept. ## What was actually broken Compiling every message in every locale file with vue-i18n's own compiler found three groups: | | count | symptom | |---|---|---| | Does not compile | 132 | page blanks with `SyntaxError` — 8 locales: es, fr, it, ja, ko, nl, pt, tr | | Compiles, unknown name | 147 | `{Anzahl}` for `{count}` → value renders as an empty string | | Stale text, dropped placeholder | 5 | `{org}`, `{payer}`, `{endpoint}`, `{service}` — English source no longer has them | Worst of the first group are mangled vue-i18n literal escapes, e.g. `{'{'}team{'}'}` coming back as `{'{'} '}` — an unbalanced brace. All 279 are corrected here. The existing translated prose is kept verbatim; only the tokens are restored. The 5 stale ones are retranslated from the current English text, since restoring a token that no longer exists is not an option. ## Why it can't come back **`web/src/locales/enUsMessages.spec.ts` already did this — for en-US only.** That left the machine-translated locales, the actual source of the bug, uncovered. Renamed to `localeMessages.spec.ts` and extended to every locale, plus a second assertion that a translation only interpolates names en-US defines. That second check is a **subset** rule, not equality: dropping a placeholder the target language does not need stays legal (an English plural suffix like `{plural}` has no Japanese equivalent). Introducing a name en-US never passes a value for is always a bug. Placeholder names are collected by *running* the compiled message against a recording context rather than by pattern-matching the source, because only the compiler knows which braces are placeholders and which are literal escapes — `{'}'}` is one token whose body is the character a `{...}` regex stops at. All plural branches are evaluated. **`scripts/translations/translator.py` — `_validate` had the same regex blind spot** (`{[^{}]*}`) and never checked that the output compiles at all, which is why these landed. It now tokenizes the way vue-i18n does and rejects anything vue-i18n would refuse, so the pipeline stops emitting them rather than CI merely catching them afterwards. Escape drift (`{'{'} rows {'} rows {'}`) is caught too, because literal escapes are now part of the compared token multiset. ## Verification - The Python scanner was cross-checked against vue-i18n's compiler over **all 170,055 messages** in the 15 locale files — identical compile verdicts and identical token sets, 0 divergences. - Injecting the original `{标识符}` string back into zh-CN fails the new spec; injecting a compiling-but-wrong `{bilv}` fails the second assertion. - `npx vitest run --environment jsdom --root src/ locales/` → 45 passed. `prettier --check` and `tsc` clean on the spec. - Only `en-US.json` is imported anywhere in `web/src`, so no existing test depends on the changed locale data. ## Not in scope A handful of translations are awkward but compile and bind correctly (e.g. ko-KR renders "ingestion limit" with the eating sense of the word). Left alone to keep this diff auditable as a mechanical token restoration.

FAQ
How does OpenObserve achieve 140x lower storage costs?
Through a combination of Parquet columnar storage (efficient compression) and an S3-native architecture (inexpensive object storage). See the cost comparison chart in the Why OpenObserve? section.
What are the limitations?
All data in OpenObserve is immutable — once ingested, it cannot be modified or deleted (only entire retention periods can be dropped). This is by design and is a feature for logs and compliance use cases, ensuring data integrity and audit trails.
Is this production-ready?
Yes. OpenObserve runs in production across thousands of deployments worldwide, including environments processing in excess of 2 PB/day. See our customer stories for real-world examples.
How does query performance compare to Elasticsearch?
OpenObserve delivers better performance than Elasticsearch for most workloads, with faster search and significantly faster analytics — while using about a quarter of the hardware. The columnar Parquet format is particularly effective for complex aggregations and analytics.
Is there a steep learning curve?
No. OpenObserve is designed to be intuitive from day one:
- Familiar query languages — SQL for logs and traces, PromQL for metrics; no proprietary query language to learn
- Easy-to-use GUI — an intuitive interface with a drag-and-drop dashboard builder
- No complex tuning — unlike Elasticsearch, there are no shards, replicas, or heap sizes to manage. Just install and go.
Most users are productive within hours, not weeks.
