[GH-5] Expose agent's basic metrics
Closed this issue · 0 comments

The agent currently is a blackbox; there's no metrics that characterize how it is during operations. Therefore, we should expose or export a basic subset of metrics pertaining to agent's operations.
Ideally, the metrics should be exported in OTEL format to ensure cross-usage with different observability platforms.
What I can think of at the moment (not meant to be exhaustive)
- Count of ingested logs
- Count of forwarded logs
- Count of internal errors
- Count of received restart signals
- Count of initialized components (inputs, tailers, buffers and forwarders)
