+The Kubernetes Objects Receiver pulls or watches objects to be collected from the Kubernetes API server.
+This receiver watches primarily Kubernetes events, but it can collect any type of Kubernetes objects.
+This receiver gathers telemetry for the cluster as a whole, so only one instance of this receiver suffices for collecting all the data.
