There was a similar talk[1] at FOSDEM, where the speaker describes how, as an experiment, he replaces a full ELK stack plus other monitoring tools with PostgreSQL. He even goes as far as implementing a minimal logstash equivalent (i.e. log parsing) into the database itself.
It wasn't an "we do this at scale" talk, but I'd love to see more experiments like it.
For the impatient: Skip to 17 minutes into the video, where he describes the previous architecture and what parts are replaced with Postgres.
