Hi there Dipen these are great questions. It seems like there are two options here, one which will definitely work, one which I'm less sure about: starting with the less certain option: I'm not sure if there's a way to get the Grafana agent to send data into an OpenTelemetry collector. That would certainly be convenient, but it doesn't look like it's a thing. And also isn't really what you'd asked for The next option would be to have some OpenTelemetry collectors running where you've currently got the Grafana agent, in a config something like this. (for the large Otel collector at the center, that would be the SigNoz collector running there)
alternatively would be the daemonset pattern where the collector is running in each VM but not within each pod
(btw I didn't draw these, they are by @Pranay for a talk he did last week, which might be useful here - transcript and video attached)

I wanted to get those metrics in signoz as well, but all the docs i scoured only have info about letting signoz scrape the metrics by defining jobs and scraping endpoints. As you can see its a tad bit difficult for me to do a poc with this if i wanna expose all those endpoints internal to the k8s cluster to where signoz is running. Is their any other way of sending those metrics from k8s
@Dipen Bhatt Please use the target allocator https://github.com/open-telemetry/opentelemetry-operator#target-allocator. It will do the job of scraping the targets and exporting the data to otlp destination (SigNoz).
