Vector is a high-performance, end-to-end (agent & aggregator) observability datapipeline that puts you in control of your observability data.Collect,transform, androuteall your logs and metrics to any vendors you want today and any othervendors you may want tomorrow. Vector enables dramatic cost reduction, noveldata enrichment, and data security where you need it, not where it is mostconvenient for your vendors. Additionally, it is open source and up to 10xfaster than every alternative in the space.
