Monitoring Fluent Bit in Production - Pandu Aji, Microsoft

Fluent Bit comes with built-in features to allow you to query internal information and monitor metrics of each running plugin. But how do you decide which metrics to use for measuring the reliability of your pipeline? How do you leverage the storage metrics, and what are the challenges? How do you detect if your logging pipeline is unhealthy and if there is any congestion? This talk will describe our Fluent Bit monitoring story. It will briefly touch on some of the design choices but will primarily focus on how to monitor Fluent Bit in the production clusters.
