Overview

This document describes how to install ADOT Collector into your existing EKS cluster.

Prerequisites

Install ADOT Collector

  1. Set up variables to export metrics of your EKS cluster to the region where the logs should be published to.
export CLUSTER_NAME=<eks-cluster-name>
export AWS_REGION=<aws-region>
  1. Deploy a standalone aws-otel-collector application. An example config template can be found here.
    • Replace `` with the name of the region where the logs are published (e.g. us-west-2).
    • Replace `` with the actual eks cluster name.
cat otel-container-insights-prometheus.yaml |
sed "s//$AWS_REGION/g" | 
sed "s//$CLUSTER_NAME/g" |
kubectl apply -f - 
  1. View the resources in the aws-otel-eks namespace.
kubectl get all -n aws-otel-eks
