About Vector

Vector is a high-performance, open-source observability data pipeline for collecting, transforming, and routing logs, metrics, and traces. It runs as a lightweight agent or aggregator and lets platform and SRE teams unify telemetry from many sources and ship it to any backend. It is vendor-neutral and commonly used to cut observability costs by filtering and reshaping data before it reaches paid tools.
