Quick Guide for Otel Agent on Docker for Logs

The OpenTelemetry Collector is a vendor-agnostic agent that collects and exports telemetry data from containerized applications. This guide provides Docker configuration for the OTel Collector to send logs, metrics, and traces to Kloudfuse, requiring you to set the resource attribute with your Kloudfuse API key.

Use the following sample file to configure the OpenTelemetry Collector to export logs, metrics, and traces to Kloudfuse.

You must supply the resource attribute kf_platform with value docker.
