Jaeger

Description

This Jaeger destination configures an OTLP exporter to send traces to a Jaeger server for ingestion. Replaces the pre-existing Jaeger destination that utilized a Jaeger specific exporter.

Supported Types

Metrics	Logs	Traces	Bindplane Agent
		✓	`v1.36.0`+

Configuration

Field	Description
Hostname	Hostname or IP address of the Jaeger server.
Port	Port of the Jaeger server, either gRPC or HTTP depending on `Protocol`, to send OTLP data to. Read more.
Protocol	The OTLP protocol to use when sending to the Jaeger server. Can be gRPC or HTTP.
Compression	Compression algorithm to use when sending data to the OTLP server. Ensure that the server supports the compression algorithm selected. Kinds of compression depend on `Protocol`.
Additional Headers	Add additional headers to be attached to each request.
Enable TLS	Whether or not to use TLS.
Skip TLS Certificate Verification	Enable to skip TLS certificate verification.
TLS Certificate Authority File	Certificate authority used to validate TLS certificates.
Mutual TLS	Whether or not to use mutual TLS authentication.
Mutual TLS Client Certificate File	A TLS certificate used for client authentication.
Mutual TLS Client Private Key File	A TLS private key used for client authentication.

This destination supports the following retry and queuing settings:

Sending Queue	Persistent Queue	Retry on Failure

Example Configuration

Basic Configuration

For basic configuration, we specify the hostname of the Jaeger server traces are going to be sent to, as well as what protocol will be used (in this case gRPC).
