Observability

Observability enables exporters for Metrics (stats such as CPU, Memory, Disk, bytes sent/rcv’d, ..etc), Events, Node Audits, and Configuration Changes

Exporters

Trustgrid currently supports an OpenTelemetry exporter for Splunk, as well as a generic HTTP exporter for platforms that accept either JSON or OTLP-encoded data, such as Logstash.
