LoongCollector is a high-performance, lightweight observability data collector designed for modern cloud-native environments. Born from Alibaba's 15-year journey handling exponential traffic growth and powering tens of millions of deployments, LoongCollector delivers **10x higher throughput** with **80% lower resource usage** compared to open-source alternatives. LoongCollector is a key component of LoongSuite(Alibaba's unified observability data collection suite). LoongSuite includes the following key components: * [LoongCollector](https://github.com/alibaba/loongcollector): universal node agent, which prodivdes log collection, prometheus metric collection, and network and security collection capabilities based on eBPF. * [LoongSuite Python Agent](https://github.com/alibaba/loongsuite-python-agent): a process agent providing instrumentaion for python applications. * [LoongSuite Go Agent](https://github.com/alibaba/loongsuite-go-agent): a process agent for golang with compile time instrumentation. * [LoongSuite Java Agent](https://github.com/alibaba/loongsuite-java-agent): a process agent for Java applications. * Other upcoming language agent. The LoongSuite open-source community hosts monthly online sharing meetings. The meeting access link for each meeting will be posted to GitHub Discussions and shared in the DingTalk and WeChat groups within one week prior to the event. Recordings of past meetings are available on [Bilibili](https://space.bilibili.com/630680534/lists/1530630). ### 🚀 Core Advantages - **⚡ High Performance** - 10x higher throughput with 80% less resource usage compared to competitors - Linear scaling with predictable performance growth - **🛡️ Production-Ready** - Battle-tested in Alibaba's production environment for 15+ years - Powers tens of millions of deployments, collecting hundreds of petabytes daily - **🔧 All-in-One Collection** - Unified agent for logs, metrics, traces, events, and profiles - Native Kubernetes support - eBPF-powered network monitoring and security event collection - **🎯 Pluggable Architecture** - 100+ built-in plugins with multi-language development (C++, Go) - Powerful SPL engine for flexible data processing - **⚙️ Advanced Management** - Remote configuration management via SLS console, SDK, K8s Operator - Self-monitoring, flow control, resource control, alarms, and statistics collection. ### 📊 Performance Benchmarks **Maximum Throughput Comparison** | Log Type | LoongCollector | FluentBit | Vector | Filebeat | |----------|---------------
