Kubernetes Community Days New York 2026 – Uncovered: The Hard Truth About OpenTelemetry’s Vendor Neutrality
June 10 @ 8:25 am – 8:35 am Convene One Liberty Plaza, The Forum, New York, USA
Our Open Source Advocate, Joshua Lee, will be speaking at Kubernetes Community Days New York 2026 on June 10.
We still hear people saying, “OpenTelemetry is vendor-neutral so you can switch vendors any time you want to.” This is like saying that because the vCard format exists, it’s easy to switch from iOS to Android. Sure, your core data will ultimately be portable, but you’ll be missing a *lot* of other things.
