Observability
OpenTelemetry is an open-source observability project under the Cloud Native Computing Foundation (CNCF). It provides a standardized framework for collecting, processing, and exporting telemetry data, including traces, metrics, and logs from software applications and infrastructure. Launched in 2019, it combines the strengths of the earlier OpenTracing and OpenCensus projects to create a unified standard for observability. The project offers a suite of components and tools, including language-specific APIs and SDKs for application instrumentation, a standardized protocol for data transmission, and an OpenTelemetry Collector for processing and exporting telemetry data. It also features instrumentation libraries for popular frameworks, making it easier for developers to generate telemetry data. OpenTelemetry is widely adopted by major technology companies and integrates with numerous platforms and observability backends, ensuring flexibility and consistency in data handling.
