Overview
These integrations collect logs — and, for some sources, request traces — from self-hosted infrastructure and databases and send them to Bronto with the OpenTelemetry Collector. Each page covers where the source writes its logs, the receiver configuration to collect them, and the Bronto exporter setup.These pages cover infrastructure and middleware you run yourself. To collect logs and traces from your own application code, instrument it with the OpenTelemetry SDK. For managed cloud services, see the AWS and Azure ingestion overviews.
Supported sources
Each source below links to a per-integration page with the exact receiver configuration and where that technology writes its logs. All of them are collected with the OpenTelemetry Collector.| Source | Type | Collected |
|---|---|---|
| Kubernetes | Container platform | Pod logs via a Collector DaemonSet |
| Docker | Container platform | Container logs (Docker and Docker Compose) |
| NGINX | Web server / proxy | Access and error logs, plus request traces |
| HAProxy | Load balancer / proxy | Access logs |
| Traefik | Reverse proxy | Access logs |
| Envoy | Proxy | Access logs |
| Istio | Service mesh | Service-mesh access logs |
| Kafka | Message broker | Broker logs |
| RabbitMQ | Message broker | Broker logs |
| PostgreSQL | Database | Server logs |
| MySQL | Database | Error and slow query logs |
| MongoDB | Database | Server logs |
| Redis | Database / cache | Server logs |
Ingestion method
Every source in this section is collected with the OpenTelemetry Collector, which tails the source’s log files (or reads its container output) and forwards logs and traces to Bronto over OTLP/HTTP. The Collector forwards only what it receives, so each integration page shows the receiver you add to pick up that source. See Getting your data into the Collector for how application, infrastructure, and platform log sources fit together. For Windows hosts, see Collecting Windows OS Logs for Windows Event Log and IIS collection.For assistance or questions, contact support@bronto.io.
