Add support for agent act as a logging proxy #4836

Open aantono opened 4 years ago

aantono commented 4 years ago

Currently, the dd-agent has to have explicit configuration for log ingestion, where an explicit service name has to be specified. It would be great if there could be a proxy mode, where the agent can just act as a local host machine listener, where applications would send their logs (TCP/UDP relay), without having to explicitly configure every app in the agent config.

The individual apps would be responsible for properly formatting the JSON log payload to be sent, similar to how they would do so when interacting directly with intake.logs.datadoghq.com endpoint (https://docs.datadoghq.com/logs/log_collection/java/?tab=slf4j#logback-configuration)

Any progress on this? Is there a plan to include it in a particular version of the agent?
