Kubernetes Logs Monitoring with Application Monitoring Model

VenkataSainath — Mon, 17 Feb 2025 07:04:48 GMT

We are monitoring 100+ Kubernetes clusters with Application monitoring mode due Bottle rocket OS (EKS ), So where we running Code image as init container.

Now we want monitoring the Specific workload or Namespace logs, and didn't find any option to enable it.
What are the options to enable to specific workload or Namespace logs to Dynatrace?

Regards,

Venkat

Hi Venkat,

Have you try to capture logs from namespace creating Log ingest rules?

Hope it helps.

Regards,

Elena.

Hi @VenkataSainath.
A couple of options (we have the same with Bottle Rocket)

1. Stream logs to Dynatrace with Fluent Bit — Dynatrace Docs

You'll probably already be using Fluent Bit for AWS, so why not leverage it and extend it to send to Dynatrace.
2. Dynatrace Collector — Dynatrace Docs

Using OTEL to forward and enrich logs to send to Dynatrace.

Option 2 is a little redundant if you already have FluentBit, but it will let you specify what logs you want to send compared to everything.

Have fun.
