Rather than promtail, have you looked at Vector? I just started an MVP of shipping logs directly to our product for end-user consumption using Vector + NATS, and it’s a killer combination.

Compared to Promtail, you have incredibly flexibility with how you collect, transform, and ship logs, with end to end confirmation and great documentation. Using promtail felt inferior once I made the switch

Agreed that Vector is much better for log collection, transformation and forwarding to the log storage than Promtail. VictoriaLogs can accept logs from Vector - https://docs.victoriametrics.com/victorialogs/data-ingestion...


Whoops, thought you were OP
