Alloy is an excellent replacement for Promtail. It can collect logs from multiple sources: read local files with loki.source.file, query system logs via loki.source.journal, or even act as a Syslog server or an OTLP receiver. Discovery components (e.g., discovery.kubernetes) can be coupled with sources to automatically target logs from relevant containers.
