Learning demo, not turnkey. This example is experimental: it shows an idea that works on the bench, but it has not been reviewed for production use. Expect rough edges and check with the owner before reusing it.

Purpose#

The Fleet Telemetry Service replaces the Legacy Log Collector. It runs on each board, ships structured log records and a small set of health metrics over MQTT, and buffers on disk while the link is down.
