Kubernetes has transformed the cloud-native infrastructure landscape, simplifying the deployment, scaling, and management of containerized applications. To ensure visibility into these dynamic environments, Cloud Observability has built robust, highly-scalable Kuberentes integrations using the OpenTelemetry Collector.

Connecting Cloud Observability to Existing OpenTelemetry Collectors

If you already have the OpenTelemetry Collector deployed in your Kubernetes environment, you can simply add an OTLP exporter configured to send data to Cloud Observablity with an access token. Necessary configuration details available on this dedicated documentation page.

Deploy Autoscaled Observability with the OpenTelemetry Kubernetes Operator

If you're adding the OpenTelemetry Collector to a new or existing Kubernetes environment for the first time, we support the OpenTelemetry Kubernetes Operator to automate the deployment, scaling, and management of Collector instances. This allows you to effortlessly collect metrics, logs, and traces from both your clusters and workloads.

Dive into the specifics with our Kubernetes Operator Quick Start guide.

Pre-Built Dashboards

Once data is ingested by Cloud Observability, teams can rapidly deploy pre-built monitoring dashboards to leverage the new telemetry. Whether you're keen on assessing service health or gauging the health of clusters and workloads, these dashboards offer immediate, actionable insights. Use the built-in "Add Dashboard" wizard in Cloud Observability to get started.
