Take control of your OpenTelemetry Collectors with Otel Remote Management

Managing OpenTelemetry (OTel) collectors across diverse, cloud-native environments is key to streamlining monitoring and gathering valuable insights. But, managing them effectively, especially across multiple servers, has been a manual and time-consuming process.

That changes today. Sumo Logic’s Otel Remote Management is designed to simplify OpenTelemetry Collector management, all from a single unified user interface. Now you can easily control and configure OpenTelemetry Collectors from diverse environments.

Eliminate bottlenecks, get faster insights

Each update or configuration change to OpenTelemetry Collectors requires direct server access, which could create bottlenecks, delay insights, and increase potential errors. Security teams also had to rely on complex configuration files, which may hinder junior engineers as they require specialized knowledge to avoid mistakes.

Gone are the days of manual configurations and error-prone setups. Otel Remote Management gives your team control, tag-based grouping, and multi-server configuration deployments directly from the Sumo Logic UI. You’ll gain faster time to value, centralized configurations, and accelerated data collection.

Manage OpenTelemetry Collectors with Otel Remote Management

With Otel Remote Management, you can now:

  • Save time and reduce complexity by configuring and managing your OpenTelemetry Collectors through a unified interface.

  • Achieve faster data collection and enriched dashboard insights by grouping Collectors by tags.

  • Eliminate the need for direct server access. Once the collector is installed, manage it remotely without any manual intervention, helping you save resources and reduce user error.

Alleviate manual lift on your end and maximize insights across your systems. Otel Remote Management helps your team simplify configuration management and data collection.

Enhance data collection and glean deeper insights

Two standout features of Otel Remote Management are collector tags and source templates. Collector tags streamline searchability and elevate analysis within your dashboards. Tags become seamlessly integrated into your telemetry data by categorizing and grouping OpenTelemetry Collectors based on parameters like environment or service type. This integration enables efficient searching, filtering, and analysis across all your dashboards, ensuring quicker insights and better organization.

Source templates further simplify configuration. Through collector linking, you can apply a single setup across multiple OpenTelemetry Collectors. This process removes redundancy, ensures consistency, and makes it easier to scale your data collection.
