Use pre-built OpenTelemetry Collector dashboards
Lightstep provides pre-built OpenTelemetry Collector dashboards using our Terraform provider. These modules allow you to monitor the health of your OpenTelemetry Collector using metrics such as CPU/memory usage, CPU/memory limits, network usage, and IOPS.
The OpenTelemetry Collector modules are currently in beta.
Requirements
- You have the OpenTelemetry Collector reporting metrics to Lightstep Observability.
- If you are not yet using OpenTelemetry Collectors, please see the recommended deployment setup for instructions.
- If you are already using OpenTelemetry Collectors, configure them to send to Lightstep Observability.
Deploying the OpenTelemetry Collector modules
Follow the instructions for using the Lightstep Terraform Provider, specifically the instructions for using unpublished modules.
You can find examples and complete setup instructions in the Github repository.
Once complete you will have a single dashboard for monitoring the health of your OpenTelemetry Collector.
