# Data Sources

The groundcover platform is built to be an all-in-one observability solution for cloud-native environments. It is built to ingest any data source directly into groundcover's backend.

By installing groundcover sensor, traces, logs and metrics are automatically collected. Read more about our Kubernetes installation [here](https://docs.groundcover.com/getting-started/installation-and-updating/connect-kubernetes-cluster) and for non-Kubernetes hosts [here](https://docs.groundcover.com/getting-started/installation-and-updating/connect-linux-hosts).

To get started with adding Data Sources, navigate to the [data sources page](https://app.groundcover.com/data-sources) in the platform.

Check the below references for more data sources:

### groundcover Essentials

Use groundcover essentials to get 360 view of your platform - install groundcover sensor to monitor your clusters, instrument Telemetry using OTel, scrape metrics using Prometheus and Add RUM to monitor your users behavior.

### Saas Services

Stream logs from sources like Fluentd, Fluentbit, or Logstash. Metrics can be ingested via Prometheus remote-write or directly from agents like StatsD and Telegraf. Traces can be ingested from any application instrumented with OpenTelemetry or Datadog’s SDK.

If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.groundcover.com/integrations/data-sources.md?ask=<question>
```

The question should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
