Abstract

In a general aspect, an observability pipeline system includes a pack data processing engine. In some aspects, an observability pipeline system includes data processing engines that are configured according to system default configuration settings and system local configuration settings. A pack file received from a remote computer system contains routes, pipelines, and pack default configuration settings. A pack data processing engine includes the routes and pipelines from the pack file. Pack local configuration settings, defined for the pack data processing engine, inherit at least one of the system default configuration settings and at least one of the pack default configuration settings. The pack local configuration settings are isolated from the system local configuration settings. When pipeline data is processed in the observability pipeline system on the computer system, the pack data processing engine is applied to the pipeline data.

Dependent claims

A method comprising:

operating an observability pipeline system on a computer system, wherein the observability pipeline system comprises:
a plurality of data processing engines;
system default configuration settings;
and
system local configuration settings,
wherein the plurality of data processing engines are configured according to the system default configuration settings and the system local configuration settings;
at the computer system, receiving a pack file from a remote computer system, the pack file comprising routes, pipelines and pack default configuration settings;
importing the pack file in the observability pipeline system on the computer system;
defining a pack data processing engine in the observability pipeline system, the pack data processing engine comprising the routes and pipelines from the pack file;
defining pack local configuration settings for the pack data processing engine, wherein the pack local configuration settings incorporate at least one of the system default configuration settings and at least one of the pack default configuration settings, and the pack local configuration settings are isolated from the system local configuration settings;
and
processing pipeline data in the observability pipeline system on the computer system, wherein processing the pipeline data comprises applying the pack data processing engine to the pipeline data.
