Installing Fluent Package

Fluentd is an open-source data collector on servers/containers, which lets you unify the data collection in near-realtime and consumption for better use and understanding of data. Fluentd was conceived by Treasure Data in 2011. But, its development is maintained by the open-source community today. Fluentd Project maintains stable packages for Fluentd and canonical plugins as Fluent Package (the package is called fluent-package), formerly known as td-agent/Treasure Agent.
