Hi, i've got an OTel Collector already deployed which retrieve logs, metrics and traces from a Kubernetes cluster. I would like to know if I can use this collector to send telemetry data to Signoz. Or I must use the Signoz Collector ?

you don’t need to deploy the k8s-infra agent. Just installing the signoz installation will do which will install the signoz otel collector deployment as well. The data from your collectors will be forwarded to signoz collector so that it’s written to clickhouse.

i don't set

deployment.environment

like in https://github.com/SigNoz/charts/blob/main/charts/k8s-infra/templates/_config.tpl#L831 but

deployment.environment.name

See https://opentelemetry.io/docs/specs/semconv/resource/deployment-environment/ Is it a problem @nitya-signoz?
