Quick Guide for OTel Agent on Docker for Metrics

The OpenTelemetry Collector can be deployed on Docker to send metrics, logs, and traces to Kloudfuse using a configuration file. This guide provides a sample configuration and explains the required resource attributes needed for proper data export. Refer to the linked documentation for additional setup details and configuration options.

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.
