Make it possible to connect to the node otel agent #2594

Closed danchia closed 9 months ago

danchia commented 2 years ago

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. I'm looking for a way for my otel exporter to talk to the node local otel agent, since by design the otel agent is a daemon that runs on every node.

However, I am unable to find a way to do so due to the current way the otel agent is deployed. Perhaps I have missed something.

Describe the solution you'd like k8s DaemonSet docs recommend using NodeIP and known port (via hostPort) to expose daemons to the pods on the same node. Ideally we could configure the otelagent DaemonSet to configure hostPort for the various ports.

Describe alternatives you've considered Alternatively, I could send traffic to the otelagent service, but that is not guaranteed to be node local, which slightly defeats the purpose of running an agent on every node.

Additional context n/a

Hi @danchia is the issue still valid? What otelcol do you reference by otelagent DaemonSet? Otelcol logs? https://github.com/SumoLogic/sumologic-kubernetes-collection/tree/b1b28ac2036e3c58a0031ef8fd233d5c556fac40/deploy/helm/sumologic/templates/logs/collector/otelcol
