Fluentd vs Fluent Bit: Which one should you use in Kubernetes?

Here is a simple breakdown ????

Fluentd:

- Full-fledged log processor
- Written in Ruby (with C extensions)
- Can handle heavy workloads and complex routing
- Best suited for centralized log aggregation and processing
- Higher resource usage (CPU/memory)

Use fluentd when you need powerful filtering, parsing, and routing at scale.

Fluent Bit:

- Lightweight log forwarder
- Written in C (very fast, low footprint)
- Perfect for edge nodes, Kubernetes DaemonSets, or embedded systems
- Usually acts as a collector/shipper to Fluentd, Elasticsearch, or other backends
- Optimized for performance and low resource consumption

Use Fluent Bit when you need a super lightweight log collector that doesnt stress your nodes.
