At Elotl we develop Luna, an intelligent cluster autoscaler for Kubernetes. Luna gets deployed on customers' clusters and helps scale up and down compute resources to optimize cost.
Luna operates in environments where direct access isn’t always available. To overcome the problem of diagnosis and performance monitoring we have introduced the option for customers to securely send their Luna logs and metrics to our advanced log storage appliance. This empowers us to enhance our support capabilities, providing even more effective assistance to our customers. OpenTelemetry is fast becoming the standard for collecting metrics and logs in Kubernetes environments. We opted to run the OpenTelemetry collector as a sidecar for the Luna cluster autoscaler. It will gather and send the logs from a single pod, therefore running it as a sidecar was a perfect match. |
