From 763c802659eb692f3cbf65181928d338387a42c0 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Vitalii Parfonov Date: Mon, 11 May 2026 19:25:53 +0300 Subject: [PATCH] LOG-9344: add context files for agentic SDLC Create four comprehensive context files on rh-main to orient AI agents and developers to this Red Hat fork of Vector: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit - AGENTS.md: Fork-specific quick reference (branch selection, ocp-logging feature scope, patched crates, build commands, OWNERS, Jira conventions) with pointers to upstream docs for generic Vector development - CONTRIBUTING.md: Fork-focused contribution guide (branching strategy, PR process, code review, Jira conventions, upstream contribution workflow) - ARCHITECTURE.md: Fork architecture (deployment model, ocp-logging feature tables for both v0.47.0-rh and v0.54.0-rh, patched dependencies with rationale, build system, design decisions, upstream sync strategy) - CLAUDE.md: Stub pointing to AGENTS.md (matches dev branch pattern) - README.md: Updated with doc links, quick-start build snippet, v0.54.0-rh release entry, fixed formatting All ocp-logging component lists (sources, transforms, sinks) verified against actual Cargo.toml on both dev branches. No upstream duplication — files reference upstream docs for generic Vector content. Upstream files on dev branches left untouched to avoid merge conflicts.

We generally discourage large pull -requests that are over 300-500 lines of diff. If you would like to propose a -change that is larger we suggest coming onto our [Discord server](https://chat.vector.dev/) and discuss it -with one of our engineers. This way we can talk through the solution and -discuss if a change that large is even needed! This will produce a quicker -response to the change and likely produce code that aligns better with our -process. - -#### Changelog - -By default, all pull requests are assumed to include user-facing changes that -need to be communicated in the project's changelog. If your pull request does -not contain user-facing changes that warrant describing in the changelog, add -the label 'no-changelog' to your PR. When in doubt, consult the vector team -for guidance. The details on how to add a changelog entry for your PR are -outlined in detail in [changelog.d/README.md](changelog.d/README.md). - -### CI - -Currently, Vector uses GitHub Actions to run tests. The workflows are defined in -`.github/workflows`. - -#### Releasing - -GitHub Actions is responsible for releasing updated versions of Vector through -various channels. - -#### Testing - -##### Skipping tests - -Tests are run for all changes except those that have the label: - +or by adding Jira Issue Key like: ```text -ci-condition: skip +LOG-7506: description ``` -##### Daily tests - -Some long-running tests are only run daily, rather than on every pull request. -If needed, an administrator can kick off these tests manually via the button on -the [nightly build action -page](https://github.com/vectordotdev/vector/actions?query=workflow%3Anightly) - -#### Flakey tests - -Historically, we've had some trouble with tests being flakey. If your PR does -not have passing tests: - -- Ensure that the test failures are unrelated to your change - - Is it failing on master? - - Does it fail if you rerun CI? - - Can you reproduce locally? -- Find or open an issue for the test failure - ([example](https://github.com/vectordotdev/vector/issues/3781)) -- Link the PR in the issue for the failing test so that there are more examples - -##### Test harness - -You can invoke the [test harness][urls.vector_test_harness] by commenting on -any pull request with: - -```bash -/test -t -``` - -### Running Tests Locally - -To run tests locally, use [cargo vdev](https://github.com/vectordotdev/vector/blob/master/vdev/README.md). - -Unit tests can be run by calling `cargo vdev test`. - -Integration tests are not run by default when running -`cargo vdev test`. Instead, they are accessible via the integration subcommand (example: -`cargo vdev int test aws` runs aws-related integration tests). You can find the list of available integration tests using `cargo vdev int show`.

- -## What is Vector? - -Vector is a high-performance, end-to-end (agent & aggregator) observability data -pipeline that puts you in control of your observability data. -[Collect][docs.sources], [transform][docs.transforms], and [route][docs.sinks] -all your logs and metrics to any vendors you want today and any other -vendors you may want tomorrow. Vector enables dramatic cost reduction, novel -data enrichment, and data security where you need it, not where it is most -convenient for your vendors. Additionally, it is open source and up to 10x -faster than every alternative in the space. - -To get started, follow our [**quickstart guide**][docs.quickstart] or [**install -Vector**][docs.installation]. - -Vector is maintained by Datadog's [Community Open Source Engineering team](https://opensource.datadoghq.com/about/#the-community-open-source-engineering-team). - -### Principles - -* **Reliable** - Built in [Rust][urls.rust], Vector's primary design goal is reliability. -* **End-to-end** - Deploys as an [agent][docs.roles#agent] or [aggregator][docs.roles#aggregator]. Vector is a complete platform. -* **Unified** - [Logs][docs.data-model.log], [metrics][docs.data-model.metric] (beta), and traces (coming soon). One tool for all of your data. - -### Use cases - -* Reduce total observability costs. -* Transition vendors without disrupting workflows. -* Enhance data quality and improve insights. -* Consolidate agents and eliminate agent fatigue. -* Improve overall observability performance and reliability. - -### Community - -* Vector is relied on by startups and enterprises like **Atlassian**, **T-Mobile**, - **Comcast**, **Zendesk**, **Discord**, **Fastly**, **CVS**, **Trivago**, - **Tuple**, **Douban**, **Visa**, **Mambu**, **Blockfi**, **Claranet**, - **Instacart**, **Forcepoint**, and [many more][urls.production_users]. -* Vector is **downloaded over 100,000 times per day**. -* Vector's largest user **processes over 500TB daily**. -* Vector has **over 500 contributors** and growing. +Vector runs as a DaemonSet on each OpenShift node, collecting application and infrastructure logs. It is deployed and configured by the [cluster-logging-operator](https://github.com/openshift/cluster-logging-operator). This image is intended to run with the configuration and `run.sh` files provided by the operator. ## Documentation -All user documentation is available at **[vector.dev/docs](https://vector.dev/docs)**. - -Other Resources: - -* [**Vector Calendar**][urls.vector_calendar] -* **Policies**: - * [**Code of Conduct**][urls.vector_code_of_conduct] - * [**Contributing**][urls.vector_contributing_policy] - * [**Privacy**][urls.vector_privacy_policy] - * [**Releases**][urls.vector_releases_policy] - * [**Versioning**][urls.vector_versioning_policy] - * [**Security**][urls.vector_security_policy] - -## Comparisons - -### Performance - -The following performance tests demonstrate baseline performance between -common protocols with the exception of the Regex Parsing test. - -| Test | Vector | Filebeat | FluentBit | FluentD | Logstash | SplunkUF | SplunkHF | -| ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | --------------- | -------- | --------------- | --------- | --------- | --------------- | -------- | -| [TCP to Blackhole](https://github.com/vectordotdev/vector-test-harness/tree/master/cases/tcp_to_blackhole_performance) | _**86mib/s**_ | n/a | 64.4mib/s | 27.7mib/s | 40.6mib/s | n/a | n/a | -| [File to TCP](https://github.com/vectordotdev/vector-test-harness/tree/master/cases/file_to_tcp_performance) | _**76.7mib/s**_ | 7.8mib/s | 35mib/s | 26.1mib/s | 3.1mib/s | 40.1mib/s | 39mib/s | -| [Regex Parsing](https://github.com/vectordotdev/vector-test-harness/tree/master/cases/regex_parsing_performance) | 13.2mib/s | n/a | _**20.5mib/s**_ | 2.6mib/s | 4.6mib/s | n/a | 7.8mib/s | -| [TCP to HTTP](https://github.com/vectordotdev/vector-test-harness/tree/master/cases/tcp_to_http_performance) | _**26.7mib/s**_ | n/a | 19.6mib/s | <1mib/s | 2.7mib/s | n/a | n/a | -| [TCP to TCP](https://github.com/vectordotdev/vector-test-harness/tree/master/cases/tcp_to_tcp_performance) | 69.9mib/s | 5mib/s | 67.1mib/s | 3.9mib/s | 10mib/s | _**70.4mib/s**_ | 7.6mib/s | - -To learn more about our performance tests, please see the [Vector test harness][urls.vector_test_harness]. - -### Correctness - -The following correctness tests are not exhaustive, but they demonstrate -fundamental differences in quality and attention to detail: - -| Test | Vector | Filebeat | FluentBit | FluentD | Logstash | Splunk UF | Splunk HF | -| ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ | ------ | -------- | --------- | ------- | -------- | --------- | --------- | -| [Disk Buffer Persistence](https://github.com/vectordotdev/vector-test-harness/tree/master/cases/disk_buffer_persistence_correctness) | **✓** | ✓ | | | ⚠ | ✓ | ✓ | -| [File Rotate (create)](https://github.com/vectordotdev/vector-test-harness/tree/master/cases/file_rotate_create_correctness) | **✓** | ✓ | ✓ | ✓ | ✓ | ✓ | ✓ | -| [File Rotate (copytruncate)](https://github.com/vectordotdev/vector-test-harness/tree/master/cases/file_rotate_truncate_correctness) | **✓** | | | | | ✓ | ✓ | -| [File Truncation](https://github.com/vectordotdev/vector-test-harness/tree/master/cases/file_truncate_correctness) | **✓** | ✓ | ✓ | ✓ | ✓ | ✓ | ✓ | -| [Process (SIGHUP)](https://github.com/vectordotdev/vector-test-harness/tree/master/cases/sighup_correctness) | **✓** | | | | ⚠ | ✓ | ✓ | -| [JSON (wrapped)](https://github.com/vectordotdev/vector-test-harness/tree/master/cases/wrapped_json_correctness) | **✓** | ✓ | ✓ | ✓ | ✓ | ✓ | ✓ | - -To learn more about our correctness tests, please see the [Vector test harness][urls.vector_test_harness]. - -### Features - -Vector is an end-to-end, unified, open data platform. - -| | **Vector** | Beats | Fluentbit | Fluentd | Logstash | Splunk UF | Splunk HF | Telegraf | -| ------------------- | ---------- | ----- | --------- | ------- | -------- | --------- | --------- | -------- | -| **End-to-end** | **✓** | | | | | | | ✓ | -| Agent | **✓** | ✓ | ✓ | | | ✓ | | ✓ | -| Aggregator | **✓** | | | ✓ | ✓ | | ✓ | ✓ | -| **Unified** | **✓** | | | | | | | ✓ | -| Logs | **✓** | ✓ | ✓ | ✓ | ✓ | ✓ | ✓ | ✓ | -| Metrics | **✓** | ⚠ | ⚠ | ⚠ | ⚠ | ⚠ | ⚠ | ✓ | -| Traces | 🚧 | | | | | | | | -| **Open** | **✓** | | ✓ | ✓ | | | | ✓ | -| Open-source | **✓** | ✓ | ✓ | ✓ | ✓ | | | ✓ | -| Vendor-neutral | **✓** | | ✓ | ✓ | | | | ✓ | -| **Reliability** | **✓** | | | | | | | | -| Memory-safe | **✓** | | | | | | | ✓ | -| Delivery guarantees | **✓** | | | | | ✓ | ✓ | | -| Multi-core | **✓** | ✓ | ✓ | ✓ | ✓ | ✓ | ✓ | ✓ | - - -⚠ = Not interoperable, metrics are represented as structured logs - ---- - -
