Blueprints: Ready-Made Processor Bundles For Your Telemetry Pipelines

Join the live stream at 11 am ET, here.

We’ve noticed a lot of our customers spend countless hours building and configuring processors. Either parsing JSON, standardizing log formats, normalizing timestamps, masking PII, de-duplicating logs, the list never ends. Most work revolves around recreating the same processor bundles in multiple processor nodes.

Bindplane’s new Blueprints solves that boring, repetitive work by providing pre-built processor bundles you can drop into any pipeline with a single click.

What exactly is a Blueprint?

Under the hood a Blueprint is a processor bundle—a named resource that stores an ordered list of individual processors and the parameters that tie them together. When you add a bundle to a pipeline, Bindplane expands the bundle and applies each processor in sequence. The bundle itself can be saved to—and reused from—your personal or organization-wide library, so common logic stays consistent everywhere it’s used.

Why processor bundles matter

Processor bundles were designed to streamline common tasks that require multiple processors—think log enrichment, schema normalization, or severity parsing. Instead of clicking “Add processor” four or five times per pipeline, you add one bundle and you’re done. The approach cuts copy-and-paste errors, keeps naming conventions identical, and makes future tweaks a matter of editing the bundle once instead of chasing dozens of configs.

During our January Community Call we demoed processor bundles live and showed how a single click cut pipeline-build time from minutes to seconds. Check out the recording to see a demo!

Inside the Blueprint library

Our first wave of Blueprints covers the transformations customers ask for most:

• Google SecOps Standardization for Windows Events
• Parse JSON
• Parse Timestamp with Regex

Each Blueprint ships with sensible defaults, but you can edit settings after adding them to your project. Because a Blueprint is essentially a processor bundle, it expands in place, and you always have full visibility into what the Blueprint is doing.

Roadmap: Community Blueprint Exchange

Blueprints launch today with a curated starter pack, but we’re already working on a public Blueprint Marketplace where you can publish and browse Blueprints from the community. Think of it as a package manager for processor bundles—install once, keep current with a click.

Try Blueprints today

If you’re running Bindplane Server v1.79.1 or newer, Blueprints are available in the Library. Pick which to add to your project and use them when adding new processors. You'll see Blueprints right away!
