Enhancements

  • New CEL Macros: Introduced two additional CEL macros (iterate and reduce) enhancing the agent’s capabilities.
  • HTTP Output Batching: Added batching support for HTTP output to improve data transmission efficiency.
  • Custom File Discovery under Kubernetes Input: Introduced support for custom file discovery paths with Kubernetes input, allowing users to collect data from specific glob paths and filter undesired files. Additionally, added regex capabilities to capture pod UID and container names.
  • Demo Log: Added ArgoCD and Istio Access log types to the Demo node, along with their respective grok patterns, facilitating easier log analysis in these environments.

Bug Fixes

  • New Relic Output: Resolved an issue where the whole resource and attributes map were being removed when pushing to New Relic. Now, attributes and resource fields are appropriately included.

Deprecated Features

  • Compactor Incoming Stats: Removed dependency on incoming stats for compactor metrics in favor of heartbeat-based representation.
