Grafana Agent v0.34 introduces several enhancements, including improved Kubernetes monitoring and support for HashiCorp Vault, with a focus on increased community involvement. The release advances feature parity between Grafana Agent Flow and its static mode through additional exporters, such as those for Snowflake and Microsoft SQL Server, and introduces the remote.vault component to handle sensitive information securely. It further enhances Kubernetes integration with the prometheus.operator.servicemonitors component, allowing for the discovery and scraping of ServiceMonitors, and incorporates community contributions such as new exporters and updates to the River standard library. The release underscores Grafana’s commitment to a vendor-neutral approach, enabling users to work with familiar protocols and formats without requiring application changes.
