The Splunk OpenTelemetry Collector for Kubernetes is a Helm chart for the Splunk Distribution of OpenTelemetry Collector. This chart creates a Kubernetes DaemonSet along with other Kubernetes objects in a Kubernetes cluster and provides a unified way to receive, process and export metric, trace, and log data for:
- Splunk Enterprise
- Splunk Cloud Platform
- Splunk Observability Cloud
This option for Kubernetes data, based on the OpenTelemetry Collector, has >10x performance over the classic Fluentd-based Splunk Connector for Kubernetes.
