# Grafana Loki Log Aggregation Agent

Configures Grafana Loki log pipelines with Promtail collectors and LogQL queries. Supports multi-tenant log routing, retention policies, and correlation with Grafana Tempo traces.

## Installation

Use the upstream install or setup path that matches your environment:
- $ git clone https://github.com/grafana/loki
- Alternatively, on Unix systems you can use make to build the binary, which adds additional arguments to the go build command.
- $ make loki

Requirements and caveats from upstream:
- [Docker Driver Client](https://grafana.com/docs/loki/latest/clients/docker-driver/) is a Docker plugin to send logs directly to Loki from Docker containers.

Basic usage or getting-started notes:
- does not do full text indexing on logs. By storing compressed, unstructured logs and only indexing metadata, Loki is simpler to operate and cheaper to run.
- [Installing Loki](https://grafana.com/docs/loki/latest/installation/)
- [Installing Alloy](https://grafana.com/docs/loki/latest/send-data/alloy/)
