We'll manage Fluent-Bit on Kubernetes nodes as a DaemonSet. This will
be necessary in order to grant it access to the Kubernetes API so it can
augment log records with Kubernetes metadata (labels, pod name, etc.).
[fluent-bit][0] is a generic, highly-configurable log collector. It was
apparently initially developed for fluentd, but is has so many output
capabilities that it works wil many different log aggregation systems,
including Victoria Logs.
Although Victoria Logs supports the Loki input format, and therefore
_Promtail_ would work, I want to try to avoid depending on third-party
repositories. _fluent-bit_ is packaged by Fedora, so there shouldn't be
any dependency issues, etc.
