Description

This dashboard monitors the data flow of an OpenTelemetry Collector, focusing on resource usage and throughput across the ingestion and export stages. It highlights per-node metrics such as otelcol_process_cpu_seconds and otelcol_process_memory_rss for system load, export efficiency data through otelcol_exporter_sent_spans and otelcol_receiver_accepted_spans, and flow balance via ingress/egress indicators like batch and total counts to surface bottlenecks in processing or exporting.
