How to Parse Multiline Log Messages With the Infrastructure Agent's Fluent Bit Plugin

The text explains how to handle multiline log messages using New Relic's Infrastructure agent, which includes a Fluent Bit plugin for log forwarding. It outlines the challenges of managing multiline logs and provides a detailed guide on creating a custom Fluent Bit configuration to consolidate these logs into single entries for better visualization and storage in New Relic Logs. This involves using a YAML configuration file and a parsers file to direct Fluent Bit to process multiline logs using specific Regex patterns. The text emphasizes the importance of adhering to strict syntax rules, especially for Windows users, and highlights the role of Zack Mutchler, a Senior Manager in Technical Marketing at New Relic, in developing observability solutions. It also notes that the views expressed are personal and not necessarily those of New Relic, while encouraging readers to engage at the Explorers Hub for further discussion.
