Collector

A collector is an OpenTelemetry runtime (Grafana Alloy or otelcol-contrib) running on a host you operate. LinkMesh enrolls it, pushes config to it, and watches its health.

Each collector owns:

  • A set of active sources
  • A set of routes wiring those sources through pipelines to destinations
  • Health metrics flowing back to the server
