Fluentd logging driver (Engine)

Fluentd logging driver

The fluentd logging driver sends container logs to the Fluentd collector as structured log data. Then, users can use any of the various output plugins of Fluentd to write these logs to various destinations.

In addition to the log message itself, the fluentd log driver sends the following metadata in the structured log message:

Field Description
container_id The full 64-character container ID.
container_name The container name at the time it was started. If you use docker rename to rename a container, the new name is not reflected in the journal entries.
