Overview
Fleet Management provides tracking and control for OpenTelemetry agents deployed into customer infrastructure, powered by the Open Agent Management Protocol (OpAMP). It is a centralized control pane that enables customers to monitor, configure, upgrade, and diagnose agents at scale - remotely and securely.
With a small number of agents, managing versions, patching bugs, updating config and ensuring uptime is simple. As the fleet of agents scales, so too does the operational overhead. Your agents form a fundamental part of your telemetry pipeline, and as such, are essential to the continued observability of your production workloads.
Fleet management aims to simplify the process of tracking, upgrading, and maintaining your agent estate, so that changes can be easily rolled out, bugs can be efficiently patched, and your engineers can remain focused on maintaining and improving your production workloads.
Use it to:
- Track the uptime and functionality of your fleet of agents.
- Ensure consistent configuration across all of your agents.
- Track the resource consumption of your agents that run on production workloads, to minimise the Noisy Neighbour problem.
- Ensure full agent coverage of your applications, by understanding the servers to which your agents are deployed today.
Getting started
To enable Fleet Management, install the Kubernetes Complete Observability and/or AWS ECS-EC2 OTel integration. Make sure that you switch the Collector metrics and Fleet Management toggles on.
Exploring your fleet in Coralogix
To explore fleet management in Coralogix, access Integrations > Fleet Management.
In the Fleet Management screen you can view your agent catalog and the available configurations through their respective tabs.
The agent catalog first displays a concise overview of the most important details regarding your agents: version distribution, the percentage of hosts running agents and details regarding top CPU and memory utilization. For a deeper understanding, you can access the underlying queries responsible for the overview graphs.
