Our Log Management solution is built for high scale and fast query performance so you can analyze logs quickly and effectively from all your cloud environments.
Gain context - Each log data is enriched with actionable context and correlated with relevant metrics and traces in one single view so you can find what you’re looking for and troubleshoot, faster.
Centralize to maximize - The groundcover platform can act as a limitless, centralized log management hub. Your are completely unaffected by the amount of logs you choose to store or query. It's entirely up to you to decide.
groundcover ensures a seamless log collection experience with our , which automatically collects and aggregates all logs in all formats - including JSON, plain text, NGINX logs, and more. All this without any configuration needed.
This sensor is deployed as a DaemonSet, running a single pod on each node within your Kubernetes cluster. This configuration enables the groundcover platform to automatically collect logs from all of your pods, across all namespaces in your cluster. This means that once you've installed groundcover, no further action is needed on your part for log collection. The logs collected by each sensor instance are then channeled to the OTel Collector.
Acting as the central processing hub, the OTel Collector is a vendor-agnostic tool that receives logs from various sensor pods. It processes, enriches, and forwards the data into groundcover's ClickHouse database, where all log data from your cluster is .
Logs Attributes enable advanced filtering capabilities and is currently supported for the formats:
JSON
Common Log Format (CLF) - like those from NGNIX and Kong
logfmt
groundcover automatically detects the format of these logs, extracting key:value pairs from the original log records as Attributes.
Each attribute can be added to your filters and search queries.
Once logs are collected and ingested, they are available within the groundcover platform in the Log Explorer, which is designed for quick searches and seamless exploration of your logs data. Using the Log Explorer you can troubleshoot and explore your logs with advanced search capabilities and filters, all within a clear and fast interface.
The Log Explorer integrates dynamic filters and a versatile search functionality that enables you to quickly and easily identify the right data. You can filter out logs by selecting one or multiple criteria, including log-level, workload, namespace and more, and can limit your search to a specific time range.
Example: filtering a log in a supported format with a field of a request path "/status" will look as follows: @request.path:"/status". Syntax can be found .
groundcover offers the flexibility to craft tailored collection filtering rules, you can choose to set up filters and collect only the logs that are essential for your analysis, avoiding unnecessary data noise. For guidance on configuring your filters, explore our section.
You also have the option to for your logs in the ClickHouse database. By default, logs are retained for 3 days. To adjust this period to your preferences, visit our section for instructions.
groundcover natively supports setting up log pipelines using This allow for full flexibility in the processing and manipulation of logs being collected - parsing additional patterns by regex, renaming attributes, and many more.
