Hey guys! 🤓
I'm Elizabeth (DevRel at SigNoz) and write for the observability real talk newsletter and this week's edition we covered about Auth for Otel Collector - something crucial but often overlooked. Collectors are THE most busy data hubs of your observability pipeline, handling huge amounts of information every moment, hence securing them is non-negotiable.
Here are some main takeaways,
1. Main points of data movement in the collector
2. Learning more about extensions
3. Securing incoming traffic with bearer auth etc
4. Securing outgoing traffic with sigv4auth
