Vector is a Rust‑based, high‑performance observability data pipeline tool (agent + aggregator) designed to collect, transform, and route logs and metrics at scale. Created by Datadog, it aims to be the only tool needed from ingestion to vendor output, providing cost-efficient, safe, and flexible telemetry processing.
Features
- Collects telemetry via logs, metrics (and upcoming traces) in a single pipeline
- High-throughput, memory-efficient design in Rust
- Programmable transforms using its own DSL
- Supports multiple output sinks (S3, BigQuery, Loki, etc.)
- Runs as a lightweight agent or central aggregator
- Vendor-neutral, lock-in‑free design with clear guarantees
