Observability Without OpenTelemetry: Does It Make Sense?

Download Now

Are your applications and infrastructures increasingly difficult to make observable?

What if there was an open-source, vendor-neutral framework for collecting telemetry data? One single agent that provides a consistent and standardised way of instrumenting applications and infrastructures?

Good news – there is! What we’ve just described is OpenTelemetry – a joint project between Splunk, Google, Microsoft, Amazon and several other organisations that currently has the second-largest number of contributors in the Cloud Native Computing Foundation after Kubernetes.

But do you know how to use it? Or if you should use it? The best thing to do is to learn about OpenTelemetry from the major contributor of the code.

In this session we'll look at:

• What OpenTelemetry is (and isn't)
• How OpenTelemetry can help you maintain independence from vendors
• How OpenTelemetry can feed into your Observability approach
• Next steps to implement once your systems are instrumented with this universal lightweight collector
• A quick demo showing how easy it is to install in your containers environment (data collection)
• A quick demo of successful integration between OpenTelemetry and an Observability solution (data visualisation)
