Releases · solarwinds/swi-k8s-opentelemetry-collector

Prometheus is no longer needed for kubernetes monitoring, therefore it is no longer deployed. By default, k8s collector does not scrape anything from Prometheus.
- If there was a Prometheus deployed by the previous version (using setting `prometheus.enabled``), it will be automatically removed.
- Setting otel.metrics.prometheus.url is still available, but is valid only in combination with otel.metrics.extra_scrape_metrics.
- If otel.metrics.prometheus.url is empty, `otel.metrics.prometheus_check`` is ignored to not fail on missing Prometheus.
- Note that otel.metrics.extra_scrape_metrics is deprecated option and will be removed in future versions.
Decreased the default batch size for metrics, logs and events sent to OTEL endpoint to 512 to avoid too big messages
Upgraded OTEL collector image to 0.8.8 (see Release notes)

Added network monitoring for Linux nodes which is based on eBPF, so it does not require service mesh to be deployed.
- It is disabled by default, to enable it set ebpfNetworkMonitoring.enabled: true in values.yaml
- It is based on opentelemetry-ebpf
- See exported_metrics.md for list of metrics
