Send logs to Dynatrace with Fluentd

Fluentd is an open-source data collector that ingests data such as logs and events from a multitude of sources. Fluentd transforms log data and sends it to your backend service of choice. By adding Dynatrace support to Fluentd, you get intelligent observability and automatic root cause analysis for additional log and event data that’s captured and processed by Fluentd.

You can use Fluentd in Kubernetes as an alternative to OneAgent-based log collection for sending logs to Dynatrace.
