What's this blog post about?

OpenTelemetry has launched a Log Collector designed to extract usage information from logs and forward them to OpenMeter for billing and cost management purposes. The collector supports various log sources and formats, making it a versatile replacement for many logging agents. It operates by directing the OpenTelemetry Collector to forward logs using the OTLP gRPC protocol and transforms the logs into the CloudEvents format utilized by OpenMeter.
