Logging Operator the Cloud Native Fluent Ecosystem
Talkat FluentCon: Cloud Native Logging Day with Fluent Bit and Fluentd Europe 2021 · on Tuesday, 2021-05-04·
summary
Logging Operator automates generation of Fluent Bit and Fluentd configs as Kubernetes CRDs, creating flows and outputs with namespace isolation, label selectors, secrets-based credentials and a config checkpoint that only activates validated configs. Demo reproduces S3 output, a Prometheus metrics filter and a Loki host-tailer, and shows null outputs and typo-driven orphan outputs detected via status fields. It is production used for over three years with 600+ GitHub stars, but warns that buffering can exhaust disks or reorder messages.
