Bindplane, the Unified Telemetry Pipeline built on OpenTelemetry, is providing the general availability of Fleets and Blueprints, two new features designed to help enterprises build, own, and maintain best-practice telemetry pipelines at scale.
According to the company, Fleets and Blueprints build on Bindplane's earlier innovations, including its Bring Your Own Collector (BYOC) and OpenTelemetry Distribution Builder, to address a critical challenge facing enterprises today: the need to manage significant increases in telemetry volume and costs while maintaining flexibility in rapidly changing technology environments.
Fleets allows users to group agents independently of configurations, making it easy to apply shared configurations to many agents at once. This enables scalable rollouts, simplifies large-scale agent management, and provides better visibility into deployment health. By separating grouping from configuration, Fleets give teams more flexible control over how agents are organized and updated. For platform teams, Fleets can be managed in the UI or entirely via CLI or API, enabling automation for large-scale rollouts across Kubernetes and hybrid infrastructure, the company said.
Blueprints are pre-built processor bundles for OpenTelemetry pipelines. Each Blueprint performs common data transformations, for example, JSON parsing, timestamp normalization, or Windows event standardization, and can be dropped into a pipeline with a single click. Blueprints are stored as reusable processor bundles and can be versioned, shared, and modified as code.
Together, these features address the dual challenge of managing large agent populations through centralized configuration management while eliminating repetitive setup work and standardizing pipelines across environments with minimal effort, said the vendor.
“Our core mission is to end vendor lock-in in observability, enabling all organizations to own their data pipelines, and we’re building the tools to drive this,” said Mike Kelly, CEO of Bindplane. “Our deep OpenTelemetry expertise helps customers build and maintain pipelines that meet their needs. Along with BYOC, Fleets and Blueprints make this total control of their data collection layer accessible at an enterprise scale.”
