About:
Loki is a log aggregation system designed inspired by Prometheus. It works by indexing only the labels associated with logs, rather than indexing the full text of the log entries. This approach significantly reduces operational costs and complexity, making it highly efficient for storing and querying massive volumes of container and application logs.
Key Features:
  • Prometheus-inspired label-based indexing
  • Minimal operational overhead
  • Seamless integration with Grafana
  • Scalable microservices architecture
Use Cases:
  • Kubernetes log aggregation
  • Centralized application logging
  • Infrastructure monitoring
  • Troubleshooting distributed systems
Alternatives:
  • Elasticsearch – Elasticsearch provides full-text search capabilities but requires significantly more resources and operational complexity.
  • Fluentd – Fluentd is a log collector/forwarder, whereas Loki handles storage and querying as a complete backend solution.
