OpenTelemetry Collector Demo

This demo is a sample app to build the collector and exercise its kubernetes logs scrapping functionality.

Build and Run

Kubernetes

Switch to this directory and run following command: kubectl apply -n <namespace> -f otel-collector.yaml

Include/Exclude Specific Logs

Kubernetes logs are being stored in /var/log/pods. Path to container logs is constructed using following pattern:

/var/log/pods/<namespace>_<pod_name>_<pod_uid>/<container>/<restart_count>.log

You can use it to manage from which containers do you want to include and exclude logs.

For example, to include all logs from default namespace, you can use following configuration:

include:
    - /var/log/pods/default_*/*/*.log
exclude: []

Docker Compose

Two steps are required to build and run the demo:

Build latest docker image in main repository directory make docker-otelcontribcol
Switch to this directory and run docker-compose up

Description

varlogpods contains example log files placed in kubernetes-like directory structure. Each of the directory has different formatted logs in one of three formats (either CRI-O, CRI-Containerd or Docker). This directory is mounted to standard location (/var/log/pods).

otel-collector-config is a configuration to autodetect and parse logs for all of three mentioned formats

Performance Tests

There are multiple tests for various configurations in testbed. Following table shows result of example run:

Test	Result	Duration	CPU Avg%	CPU Max%	RAM Avg MiB	RAM Max MiB	Sent Items	Received Items
Log10kDPS/OTLP	PASS	15s	15.2	15.7	69	73	149900	149900
Log10kDPS/filelog	PASS	15s	16.5	18.0	61	74	150000	150000
Log10kDPS/kubernetes_containers	PASS	15s	42.3	44.0	66	80	150000	150000
Log10kDPS/k8s_CRI-Containerd	PASS	15s	36.7	38.0	64	78	150000	150000
Log10kDPS/k8s_CRI-Containerd_no_attr_ops	PASS	15s	28.9	29.7	64	77	150000	150000
Log10kDPS/CRI-Containerd	PASS	15s	19.0	21.0	63	77	150000	150000

ToDo

To cover kubernetes system logs, logs from journald should be supported as well.
