Run AWSOTelCollector Beta Examples with Docker

This example will introduce how to run AWSOTelCollector Beta in the Docker container. This example uses a AWS data emitter container image that will generate Open Telemetry Protocol (OTLP) format based metrics and traces data to AWS CloudWatch and X-Ray consoles.

Please follow the steps below to try ADOT Collector Beta.

Prerequisite

If you haven't setup your AWS Credential profile yet, please follow the instruction for setting up your AWS credentials.

Run a single Aws-OTel-Collector instance in Docker

  • Checkout aws-otel-collector source code to get the example configuration in the examples folder.
    git clone https://github.com/aws-observability/aws-otel-collector.git
    cd aws-otel-collector
  • Start the aws-otel-collector instance in Docker using the default AWS Credential profile.
    docker run --rm -p 4317:4317 -p 55680:55680 -p 8889:8888 \
      -e AWS_REGION=us-west-2 \
      -e AWS_PROFILE=default \
      -v ~/.aws:/root/.aws \
      -v "${PWD}/examples/docker/config-test.yaml":/otel-local-config.yaml \
      --name awscollector public.ecr.aws/aws-observability/aws-otel-collector:latest \
      --config otel-local-config.yaml;
  • or by setting the AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID, AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY environment variables.
    docker run --rm -p 4317:4317 -p 55680:55680 -p 8889:8888 \
      -e "AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID=${AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID}" \
      -e "AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY=${AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY}" \
      -e AWS_REGION=us-west-2 \
      -v "${PWD}/examples/docker/config-test.yaml":/otel-local-config.yaml \
      --name awscollector public.ecr.aws/aws-observability/aws-otel-collector:latest \
      --config otel-local-config.yaml;

Note: The example configuration assumes us-west-2 for the region, modify as necessary.

Run Aws-OTel-Collector with Sample App in Docker Compose

  1. Checkout aws-otel-collector source code, and open the docker-compose.yaml under examples folder. Please make sure you have the right aws credential path (eg, ~/.aws:/root/.aws) and the collector config file (eg, ../config.yaml:/etc/otel-agent-config.yaml) set. You can also directly use your AWS credential key by setting up these environment variables AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID, AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY and AWS_REGION in the config. The region is where the data will be sent to.
    image: public.ecr.aws/aws-observability/aws-otel-collector:latest
    command: ["--config=/etc/otel-agent-config.yaml"]
    environment:
      - AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID=<to_be_added>
      - AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY=<to_be_added>
      - AWS_REGION=<to_be_added>
    volumes:
      - ../config.yaml:/etc/otel-agent-config.yaml // use default config
      - ~/.aws:/root/.aws
  1. Once you have the docker-compose.yaml file setup and saved, run the following make command.
cd examples; docker-compose up 
  1. Now you can view you data in AWS console

    • X-Ray - aws console
    • CloudWatch - aws console

AWS Metrics Sample Data

  • aws metrics
    AWS Traces Sample Data
  • aws traces
  1. Stop the running AWSOTelCollector in Docker container
make docker-stop
