Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

I am using 3rd party applications, where I cannot make any code change to integrate OTEL SDK. I want to capture application metrics, logs, traces running in Kubernetes cluster and send it to Azure Application Insights or directly to Azure Log Analytics Workspace. I want Opentelemetry Collector installed in one namespace (inside K8s cluster), should receive metrics, logs, traces from my application installed in another namespace (inside k8s cluster) and forward it to Azure Log Analytics Workspace or Application Insights.

Describe the solution you'd like

Ask is without touching application code, I want to install Opentelemetry collector to collect application logs, metrics, traces and send it to Azure Log Analytics. If this is feasible, please help me with a straightforward document - I already spent 2 weeks going through various document with no luck.

Describe alternatives you've considered

Alternatively I have to combine multiple tool e.g. Fluent Bit, Newrelic/dynatrace, Prometheus to achieve it.

Additional context

My Application will install in Kubernetes cluster. Being 3rd party applications I cannot modify code and vendor doesn't support OTEL SDK integration. Still Opentelemetry collector should capture metrics, logs, traces and ingest to Azure Log Analytics Workspace.
