Agents of Mass Collection: Cribl Edge Set-up and Tips
Collection agents emerged to alleviate the pain of having log files distributed around your application servers. However, they brought new problems since each log analysis tool wanted its own agent, trading in its own protocols and/or formats, usually targeting only a single use case. Meaning you had to install multiple agents for different use cases. Onboarding data and managing all these agents seems to be an afterthought.
What I Wish I Knew Before Building My First OTel Collector
Starting your journey to build your first OTel Collector can be really exciting, but it can also feel a bit overwhelming. OpenTelemetry, or OTel, is an amazing tool that can help standardize the collection of observability data, but it's normal to feel a bit lost at first. There are lots of little details and best practices that can make the whole process easier, but many of us end up learning them the hard way.
Redefining Observability Pricing to Remove the Universal Obstacle of Cost
Observability is critical to innovation, but for many organizations, soaring costs make it impossible to achieve. Logz.io is here to change that.
Docker Log Rotation - Definition, Configuration Guide, and Best Practices
Docker containers generate logs to monitor their operations, but without a mechanism in place to manage these logs, they can grow indefinitely, leading to excessive disk space consumption and performance degradation. Implementing docker log rotation is crucial to control log file size and quantity, ensuring efficient log management and optimal system performance.
