Does anyone here have experience with moving to Honeycomb from the Grafana stack? I am considering trying an experiment with some our tenants (we have multiple tenants sending data to Grafana), and I’m considering the best approach. The main challenge I anticipate is that we have the traditional logs/metrics/traces approach, and I’m not sure how well those will integrate in Honeycomb or if we’ll need to overhaul what we’re reporting from our application.

I'll recommend moving to OpenTelemetry first, but still pointing to Grafana, and when you are ready then just add an additional exporter to your collector, it'll continue flowing into Grafana but also Honeycomb.

Yeah, we have some stuff being exported via OpenTelemetry. Would you recommend adding more data to our traces before adding the additional exporter? Or just send to both and then iterate from there?

OpenTelemetry is a great way to start. I would add the exporter to both and iterate from there so you don’t disrupt what you have running and can easily switch back or move to the new provider.

+1 for that ☝️, since oTel is there already, there is no need to drop existing but to export to both and iterate
