v1.0.0
Grafana Labs is excited to announce Grafana Alloy, our open source distribution of the OpenTelemetry Collector. Alloy is a telemetry collector that is 100% OTLP compatible and offers native pipelines for OpenTelemetry and Prometheus telemetry formats, supporting metrics, logs, traces, and profiles.
We’ve built Alloy on the foundation of our work with Grafana Agent, while also incorporating lessons learned from some of the toughest use cases we’ve seen over the years. As a result, Alloy — which is production ready and released as v1.0 — is broadly compatible with the most popular open source telemetry signals. Plus, it includes enterprise-grade features — such as native clustering for production at scale and built-in Vault support for enhanced security — all out of the box.
Overall, Alloy is an extension of our “big tent” philosophy at Grafana Labs. We believe that organizations should own their observability strategy, choose their own tools, and have the freedom to bring all their data together in one view. Grafana Alloy helps you achieve just that as a telemetry collector that’s compatible with a suite of different signals that can meet a wide array of different needs.
