Description
The Honeycomb Telemetry Pipeline (HTP) Gateway source is an OTLP source meant to be used for gateway nodes. When using this source in conjunction with an HTP Gateway destination from another configuration, telemetry traveling through this source will not be double counted in the Summary view.Supported Platforms
Configuration Table
Example Configuration
The HTP Gateway source type does not have any required fields. By default, the HTP Gateway source will listen on ports 4317/gRPC and 4318/HTTP on all IP addresses without TLS.
Kubernetes
The HTP Gateway source type supports Kubernetes, OpenShift Node (DaemonSet), and Gateway agents. Applications within the cluster can forward metrics, logs, and traces to the agents using the clusterIP services.Prerequisites
- Honeycomb Telemetry Pipeline v1.52.0 or newer
Configuration
The HTP Gateway source type does not require additional configuration. It can be attached to any Kubernetes, OpenShift Node (DaemonSet), or Gateway configuration. The following endpoints can forward telemetry to the managed Node (DaemonSet) agents.
The following endpoints can forward telemetry to the managed Gateway agents.
It is a matter of preference if you should forward telemetry to the DaemonSet or Gateway agents. We recommend that you use the Gateway agent if DaemonSet resource consumption is a concern, as the Gateway agent can scale independent of cluster size.
