KloudMate Agents
An OpenTelemetry Collector distribution with automated deployment, remote configuration, eBPF-powered zero-code observability, and auto-instrumentation support.
KM-Agent is an OpenTelemetry Collector distribution that extends the upstream OpenTelemetry Collector with additional capabilities for simplified deployment, remote configuration management, automated instrumentation, and eBPF-powered kernel-level observability. We've bundled a curated set of components optimized for observability in Kubernetes, Linux, Docker, Windows environments, and even on Edge.
Key Problems Solved
- Complex Configuration: Eliminates the steep learning curve of OpenTelemetry Collector configuration
- Manual Installation: Provides automated installation scripts for multiple environments
- Configuration Management: Enables remote configuration through a web interface without SSH access
- Blind Spots in Observability: Using eBPF get instant, zero-code visibility across all services — no SDK integration, no code changes, no restarts
- Database Visibility: Built-in Database Activity Monitoring (DAM) captures SQL operations, latencies, and throughput at the kernel level
Features
- Automated Installation: One-command deployment across Linux, Docker, and Kubernetes
- Remote Configuration: Configure agents through a web interface without your target machine access
- Lifecycle Management: Comprehensive management of OpenTelemetry Collector
- Synthetic Monitoring: Built-in health checks and monitoring capabilities
- Multi-Platform Support: Native support for various deployment environments (including ARM64)
- Real-time Dashboards: Unique agent identification for centralized monitoring
- eBPF-Powered Observability: Kernel-level, zero-code instrumentation for instant application and network visibility
- Database Activity Monitoring (DAM): Automatic profiling of MySQL, PostgreSQL. Even messaging systems like Redis, Kafka etc.
- Zero Downtime Instrumentation: Observe all services without code changes or application restarts
Supported Environments
- Linux (Debian/Ubuntu, RHEL/CentOS) — x86_64 and ARM64 (aarch64)
- Docker (Host metrics and log collection)
- Kubernetes (via DaemonSet and Deployment)
- Windows (Windows Server 2016+)
