Fluentd
CNCF-graduated log collector that unifies data collection from many sources into a single, structured logging layer.
Overview
Fluentd collects logs from a huge range of sources - application logs, system logs, cloud services - and routes them, in a unified structured format, to one or more destinations like Elasticsearch, object storage, or a log-analytics backend. Its plugin ecosystem covers most common inputs and outputs without custom glue code.
Fluentd is a fit for teams that need a dedicated log-collection and forwarding layer in front of a storage or analytics backend, complementing Grafana Loki (also in this catalog), which handles log storage and querying rather than the collection layer itself.
