Set up Data Collection for Kubernetes

This pageĀ provides an overview of the collection process for Kubernetes environments.

Sumo Logic collects logs, events, metrics, and security data using the Sumo Logic distribution for OpenTelemetry Collector and Falco, both of which are open source collectors. The collected data streams through the OpenTelemetry pipelines for metadata enrichment. Sumo Logic then tags the container, pod, node, and cluster, as well as identifying the service, namespace, and deployment.

Kubernetes architecture

Reference Kubernetes Quickstart for instructions on how to set up collection, install the relevant dashboards and alerts, and start monitoring your Kubernetes environment.

See theĀ Sumo Logic Kubernetes Helm ChartĀ for information on advanced configurations,Ā best practices, performance,Ā troubleshooting, and upgradingĀ to our latest version.
