- Learn
- how
- Fluent
- Bit
- can
- not
- only
- meet
- all
- the
- demands
- of
- cloud-native
- use
- cases,
- but
- also
- more
- traditional
- deployments
- as
- well.About
- the
- technologyFluent
- Bit
- is
- a
- super-fast
- lightweight
- observability
- tool
- that’s
- perfect
- for
- Kubernetes
- and
- containers,
- as
- well
- as
- traditional
- IT
- environments.
- Fluent
- Bit
- makes
- it
- a
- snap
- to
- extract
- meaning
- from
- the
- logs,
- traces,
- and
- other
- performance
- metrics
- generated
- by
- your
- applications
- and
- infrastructure.
- It’s
- also
- a
- great
- way
- to
- route
- telemetry
- to
- analysis
- tools
- like
- Prometheus
- and
- Grafana.About
- the
- bookLogs
- and
- Telemetry
- shows
- you
- how
- to
- turn
- systems
- data
- into
- actionable
- insights
- using
- Fluent
- Bit.
- You’ll
- start
- by
- learning
- the
- pre-built
- plugins
- for
- common
- use
- cases
- and
- progress
- to
- integration
- with
- powerful
- tools
- like
- OpenTelemetry
- and
- real-time
- analytical
- event
- processing.
- You’ll
- use
- plugins
- to
- configure
- routing,
- filtering
- and
- processing,
- automate
- your
- observability
- with
- Lua
- scripts,
- and
- configure
- Fluent
- Bit
- to
- meet
- the
- demands
- of
- highly
- scalable
- environments.What's
