@manohar mirle I don't think opentelemetry supports json exporter. If you are forwarding from one otel-collector to another via nginx why don't you do it via otlp exporter and receiver

that will be more performant as the collectors won't need to json serialize and deserialize the data
The above config shows you are using otlp format only

THanks Ankit for quick response.
Actually, the signoz collector is in Azure VM which is collecting the traces and sending it to on-prem DC. So, it has to go through nginx proxy and then to Signoz receiver.
NOte: THe plan is to introduce https between collector and nginx in the higher environments. nginx will offload https to http. Hence, we are testing with http protocol now.

so, the complete signoz setup is running in your DC and 1 collector at an azure VM, right?
SigNoz is an open-source APM. It helps developers monitor their applications & troubleshoot problems, an open-source alternative to DataDog, NewRelic, etc.
