A Cloud Native Collector is a Docker container that can be installed on any cloud VM. It provides log aggregation and configuration management, and can be configured to forward logs to vRealize Log Insight Cloud. While configuring a Cloud Native Collector, you must stay at or below the supported maximums for HTTP and syslog requests.

Note: The default configuration for Cloud Native Collector is 1 vCPU and 1 GB RAM. For a higher throughput, you can contact customer support to modify the resource limits.

If your Cloud Native Collector is running on an AWS or Azure VM instance, the following resource limits are applicable.
