Grafana Labs has released Grafana Agent v0.31, introducing significant updates including a new Helm chart for easier Kubernetes deployment, Windows Docker image support, and enhanced capabilities for continuous profiling with Grafana Phlare, following the acquisition of Pyroscope. The release allows for seamless integration with Kubernetes through the Helm Chart, enabling easy installation, while also supporting profiling data collection in Google's pprof format to be stored in a Phlare database. The update enhances the Grafana Agent's ability to convert log formats between OpenTelemetry and Grafana Loki, facilitating log management across platforms. Furthermore, the Grafana Agent now features integration with Grafana Mimir, allowing auto-discovery of Kubernetes resources using PrometheusRule CRDs, thus optimizing alerting and query processes. The company provides comprehensive documentation and community support to assist users in adopting these new features, underscoring their commitment to creating open-standard, easily installable products.
