Configuration Parameters of Prometheus Remote Write output plugin

[Ansh Lehri]

Hey everyone,

I have to build a metrics visualization tool to monitor K8s pods using the fluent bit, Prometheus, and grafana. Prometheus runs on a separate docker container on another EC2 instance. For this, I am trying to use Fluentbit's Node Exporter input plugin along with Prometheus Remote Write output plugin. 

I am having trouble setting up host and port configuration parameters for the output plugin as I am not able to understand what the documentation meant by the target machine. Can anyone explain this a bit or better if anyone can provide some tutorials which use the remote_write plugin and Prometheus?

Also, if possible, kindly provide your view on how to achieve my use-case of exporting pod metrics to an outer service like Prometheus using remote_write.

Thanks!
