Hi Team, I have a eks cluster, can we use vector for log collection and store the logs in signoz clickhouse container?
p
I believe opentelemetry sink is not yet picked up by Vector, but only as a source. Tracking issue: https://github.com/vectordotdev/vector/issues/1444
@nitya-signoz any alternate ways to for vector log collector?
s
hey prashant, thanks for addressing it, one of my client is looking for vector, as you know that signoz will automatically deploy otel collector container right?? so is their any possible way to collect the logs from eks through vector..
p
EKS pod logs should be automatically collected using k8s-infra helm chart. How does vector logs come into picture? Do you have any external services which are sending these?
s
but in place of k8s infra helm chart they want to use vector
so vector agent will be collecting the log from eks and transferring it to otel collector, which will be visualize in our signoz frontend as well as it will store in clickhouse container..
so is this possible?
can we do some config changes in otel collector.yaml file to get the logs from vector ??
n
as of now, don’t think there is a direct way to do that. there is one way which might work but some config might be required i.e sending from vector to signoz-otel-collector using http https://signoz.io/docs/userguide/send-logs-http/ https://vector.dev/docs/reference/configuration/sinks/http/
