From Sensors to Insights: Building an Open Observability Pipeline for Industrial Systems
summary
An open source observability pipeline for industrial sites uses Telegraf, Vector, OpenTelemetry, VictoriaMetrics, Grafana, Loki to collect metrics and logs from IT and OT, normalize labels and priorities, and push alerts to context-aware Grafana dashboards. Edge collectors run on low‑power hardware with buffering for intermittent networks, TLS and token-based auth secure transport, and a Python simulator generates temperature pressure and energy events; batching and correlation reduce noise so incidents surface within about 15 minutes in the reported deployment.
