But with more teams moving toward OpenTelemetry and collecting logs, metrics, and traces through a more unified pipeline, Grafana Alloy is getting more attention. I'm curious what people are actually using in production. - Are you still running Fluent Bit? - Have you tried Grafana Alloy? - Do you prefer one collector for multiple telemetry types, or separate tools for logs, metrics, and traces? I came across this comparison of **Fluent Bit and Grafana Alloy** that looks at their Kubernetes use cases, resource usage, telemetry support, and where each approach makes sense.
