Use this command to install Alloy:
winget install --id=GrafanaLabs.Alloy -e

Alloy is an open-source observability platform designed to streamline data collection and processing for modern applications. Built on OpenTelemetry Collector, it offers programmable pipelines that enable flexible configuration of metrics, logs, traces, and profiles.

Key Features:

  • Programmable Pipelines: Leverage a rich expression-based syntax to create powerful, customizable observability workflows.
  • Multi-Telemetry Support: Handle diverse data types including metrics, logs, traces, and profiles in a single platform.
  • Ecosystem Integration: Seamlessly integrate with popular tools like Prometheus, Grafana Loki, and Pyroscope.
  • Kubernetes-Native Components: Simplify interactions with Kubernetes resources without additional setup.
  • Workload Distribution: Automatically scale by forming clusters of Alloy instances for efficient processing.

Audience & Benefit: Ideal for developers, DevOps engineers, and organizations leveraging open-source observability tools like Grafana or Prometheus. Alloy empowers teams to build scalable and efficient observability pipelines that integrate effortlessly with existing ecosystems, ensuring robust monitoring and analytics capabilities.

README

Grafana Alloy is an open source OpenTelemetry Collector distribution with built-in Prometheus pipelines and support for metrics, logs, traces, and profiles.

What can Alloy do?

  • Programmable pipelines: Use a rich expression-based syntax for configuring powerful observability pipelines.

  • OpenTelemetry Collector Distribution: Alloy is a distribution of OpenTelemetry Collector and supports dozens of its components, alongside new components that make use of Alloy's programmable pipelines.

  • Big tent: Alloy embraces Grafana's "big tent" philosophy, where Alloy can be used with other vendors or open source databases. It has components to perfectly integrate with multiple telemetry ecosystems:

    • OpenTelemetry Collector
    • Prometheus
    • Grafana Loki
    • Grafana Pyroscope

  • Kubernetes-native: Use components to interact with native and custom Kubernetes resources; no need to learn how to use a separate Kubernetes operator.

  • Shareable pipelines: Use modules to share your pipelines with the world.

  • Automatic workload distribution: Configure Alloy instances to form a cluster for automatic workload distribution.

  • Centralized configuration support: Alloy supports retrieving its configuration from a for centralized configuration management.

    Release cadence

    A new minor release is planned every six weeks.

    The release cadence is best-effort: if necessary, releases may be performed outside of this cadence, or a scheduled release date can be moved forwards or backwards.

    Minor releases published on cadence include updating dependencies for upstream OpenTelemetry Collector code if new versions are available. Minor releases published outside of the release cadence may not include these dependency updates.

    Patch and security releases may be published at any time.
