The Cloud Native Computing Foundation (CNCF) announces the expansion of OpenTelemetry into CI/CD observability, enabling standardized and vendor-agnostic monitoring of CI/CD pipelines.
The article explores the evolution of observability from traditional APM tools (Observability 1.0) to a more developer-focused approach (Observability 2.0). Observability 2.0 aims to provide real-time, actionable insights and empower developers throughout the software development lifecycle, addressing technical debt and enhancing the developer experience.
This Splunk Lantern blog post highlights new articles on instrumenting LLMs with Splunk, leveraging Kubernetes for Splunk, and using Splunk Asset and Risk Intelligence.
OpenTelemetry is not just an observability platform, it's a set of best practices and standards that can be integrated into platform engineering or DevOps.
With the addition of profiling to OpenTelemetry, we expect continuous production profiling to hit the mainstream.
This article explains the differences between observability, telemetry, and monitoring, and how they work together to help teams understand and improve their software systems. It also discusses the benefits of using OpenTelemetry, a standard for creating and collecting telemetry for software systems, and Honeycomb's observability platform.
OpenTelemetry offers a standardized process for observability, but its functionality is a work in progress. Its usefulness depends on the observability tools and platforms used in conjunction with OpenTelemetry.
