AltocumulusAST and Telemetry Streaming
AltocumulusI am looking to combine AST with Telemetry Streaming as - from my understanding so far - the Otel Collectory that comes with AST uses iControl calls to obtain the metrics from the F5.
Since Telemetry Streaming supports pushing to an Otel Collector I was wondering if it would be possible to use that method to get data into the AST.
Employee... the Otel Collectory that comes with AST uses iControl calls to obtain the metrics from the F5.
Yes, that is correct.
Since Telemetry Streaming supports pushing to an Otel Collector I was wondering if it would be possible to use that method to get data into the AST.
The AST Otel Collector is not currently written to receive data via push. It only has the ability to pull data using the iControl REST API (as you pointed out above). This could certainly be a feature request, but what is the reason you would like push data to it using Telemetry Streaming instead of the pull method it uses today?
