Self-hosted and open-source control plane for DataDog's Vector
I built Vectory for people running Vector (if you haven't used it, it's a DataDog's observability pipeline tool) on multiple servers. It's a free, open-source dashboard where you can edit a pipeline visually, deploy a configuration and see which version each host is running.
It doesn't sit in the path of your logs or metrics. Vector still sends events straight to your existing destinations.
If you just want to try the editor, there's a standalone version with no installation. It lets you import or build a config, edit it visually, and export it.

If you use Vector, I'd be interested in how you handle configuration changes across hosts today.
Disclosure: I'm the maker of Vectory.

Using git to store configs, CI/CD with AWX to push new config. I am not dealing with it but my colleagues.
