Description
FluentBit supports a lot of log collector systems and will be much more flexible than promtail. With Loki 0.4.0 it is supporting fluentBit official. So give it a try and see if it works with Loki, if yes, replace promtail fully

Actions:

  • Add a release process to https://github.com/kyma-incubator/fluentbit and use the docker image produced there
  • Integrate fluentbit to the logging chart
  • Assure that is serving Loki by default
  • Assure that the setup is stable (survives weekly cluster)
  • Fluentbit configuration can be passed by installer
  • Promtail is removed
  • Documentation is adjusted
  • Loki can be disabled (incl. UI) so that you can use logging chart only with external systems

Reasons
Provide a broader variety of integrations to other log systems, do not maintain two kind of agents

To disable loki, set the following values using overrides for logging (component=logging):

  • loki.enabled=false
  • fluent-bit.conf.Output.loki.enabled=false
