In this episode of the Grafana OTel Community Call, we're joined by Sonal Gaud, code owner of otelhttp on opentelemetry-go-contrib. We'll trace her path from writing test-coverage PRs to owning the instrumentation library that most Go services use to get HTTP traces and metrics for free — and go deep on how otelhttp actually works under the hood: context propagation, metrics/attributes via the Labeler, route cardinality, and how the library evolves alongside HTTP semantic conventions.

Grafana's Knowledge Graph builds a contextual layer on top of your telemetry data, automatically extracting entities and relationships so you can see how your services actually connect. In this deep dive, Jia show how it powers root-cause investigation both in the Grafana UI and through agentic workflows using gcx and Claude Code.
