Synopsis
Grafana Alloy is a log management agent built by Grafana labs to scrape and forward logs to Loki, a log management system also built by Grafana labs. Then you can use Grafana itself to visualize those logs and built an alerting system.
alloy_cd is a Puppet module to automate installation and configuration of alloy.
WARNING
Attention: Never use this puppet module on systems which have been previously configured manually. It is impossible to predict how and what would have been configured, hence previous configurations outside the scope of this module may be overwritten! Automated configurations require a test environment to verify that the module suits the purpose intended by the user, as well as tune the parameters, before deploying into live production

Disclaimer
ConfDroid as entity is entirely independent from Puppet. We provide custom configuration modules, written for specific purposes and specific environments. The modules are tested and supported only as documented, and require testing in designated environments (i.e. lab or development environments) for parameter tuning etc. before deploying into production environments.
