Logging operator for Kubernetes based on Fluentd and Fluent-bit. For more details please follow up with this post.
This operator helps you to pack together logging information with your applications. With the help of Custom Resource Definition you can describe the behaviour of your application within its charts. The operator does the rest.
The logging operator automates the deployment and configuration of a Kubernetes logging pipeline. Under the hood the operator configures a fluent-bit daemonset for collecting container logs from the node file system. Fluent-bit enriches the logs with Kubernetes metadata and transfers them to fluentd. Fluentd receives, filters and transfer logs to multiple outputs. The whole flow can be defined in a single custom resource. Your logs will always be transferred on authenticated and encrypted channels.
- Advanced logging on Kubernetes
- Secure logging on Kubernetes with Fluentd and Fluent Bit
- Centralized logging under Kubernetes
- Centralized logging on Kubernetes automated
- And more...
Logging-operator is a core part of the Pipeline platform, a Cloud Native application and devops platform that natively supports multi- and hybrid-cloud deployments with multiple authentication backends. Check out the developer beta:
