What is OpenTelemetry? OpenTelemetry is an open-source observability framework designed to standardize the way we generate, collect, and export telemetry data—like traces, metrics, and logs—from applications and infrastructure. It aims to make monitoring and observability tools interoperable across the industry. Three Pillars of Observability in OpenTelemetry: 🌟 Tracing: Tracks the flow of requests across services (e.g., from frontend to backend). 🌟 Metrics: Measures performance data (e.g., request counts, CPU usage). 🌟 Logging: Records specific events in an application to help diagnose issues. Benefits of OpenTelemetry: 🎖️ Vendor-neutral: Works across many tools, reducing lock-in. 🎖️ Flexible: Choose which data to collect, how to process it, and where to send it. 🎖️ Rich Insights: Helps monitor application performance and diagnose issues. By providing a common framework, OpenTelemetry simplifies observability and makes it easier to integrate various monitoring tools into complex applications. It’s ideal for distributed systems and microservices where visibility is crucial for identifying bottlenecks and maintaining performance. ------------------------------ Don't forget to save and share it with cherished ones. 🏹 Join me to explore more about DevOps, MLOps, AIOps, and all things Platform; Abdullateef Lawal 🌟.
