DevOpsDays Nashville 2024 Talk: Modern Application Debugging: An Introduction to OpenTelemetry
In this talk, Josh will be sharing his insights and experiences with OpenTelemetry, an open-source project that offers protocols, APIs, and SDKs for collecting metrics, traces, and logs from applications and services. He will cover the tools provided by the OpenTelemetry Community, including the Language SDKs, the Collector, and the OTLP formats for Metrics, Traces, and Logs. He will demonstrate how to instrument and observe a microservices application running on a Kubernetes cluster, utilizing the resources that OpenTelemetry has to offer. You will gain a deeper understanding of using open-source tools like Jaeger and Prometheus to analyze the telemetry signals from your application.
