I have multiple namespaces [A, B, C] in Kubernetes and I want to export logs, traces, and metrics from only the namespaces [A, B]. How can I do that? I'm trying to set it up via a Helm chart.

Currently, we have two Signoz frontend instances: one for DEV and the other for PROD. We have multiple namespaces for DEV and PROD deployment in K8s, and I want to send separate logs and metrics respectively from the namespaces to Signoz.

I found this block in Helm values, so if I mention my [A, B] namespaces here, does the k8s infrastructure install only to these namespaces?

```# -- Which namespace to install k8s-infra components.
# By default installed to the namespace same as the chart.
namespace: " "```

For logs, you can use `logsCollection` preset to either whitelist/blacklist logs collection from specific namespace.

For metrics, it would be difficult to do that as they are collected from kubelet agent.

For traces, you have control over which applications to instrument.
