    • an agent which ships the contents of local logs to a private Grafana Loki instance or Grafana Cloud. It is usually deployed to every machine that runs applications which need to be monitored.
    • It primarily:
    • Discovers targets
    • Attaches labels to log streams
    • Pushes them to the Loki instance.
    • Currently, Promtail can tail logs from two sources: local log files and the systemd journal (on AMD64 machines only).
