Hey friends! I wanted to share a short OpenTelemetry 2023 recap and what’s next in 2024.
• Metrics adoption saw a remarkable rise. The team at CloudFoundry adopted OpenTelemetry for their metrics. We’re gearing up for a similar trend in logs for 2024.
• Integration of OpenTelemetry in load testing tools like Grafana k6 and Artillery.
• API Gateway observability took a leap forward with Tyk’s native OpenTelemetry support.
• The OpenTelemetry Collector’s capabilities were increased by the introduction of OTTL, streamlining signal processing.
• Using Observability during development has been championed by Honeycomb, with
Digma.ai and Tracetest pushing the envelope.
• The focus now is enhancing browser instrumentation for more comprehensive end-to-end testing which was a hot topic at KubeCon North America.
