We recently introduced the LogicMonitor Exporter which is now a part of OpenTelelemetry Collector Contrib distro. This allows you to bring your collector for streaming telemetry data from your environment to LM Envision, LogicMonitor’s hybrid and multi-cloud monitoring platform. LogicMonitor associates the exported logs and traces from a single OpenTelemetry collector to simplify your application’s operations and troubleshoot issues.

The Cloud Native Computing Foundation (CNCF) is a non-profit organization dedicated to advancing the adoption of cloud-native technologies and practices. Established in 2015 as a part of the Linux Foundation, the CNCF has become a prominent open-source organization that aims to develop a standardized and vendor-neutral cloud-native stack. The CNCF seeks to enable the use of cloud-native computing for building scalable and resilient applications in dynamic environments.

Observability is a term that has been thrown around a lot in the past few years in the software development industry. Different people use it in different ways, but one thing that is clear is that it attempts to provide a solution to a real pain engineers are feeling. It is the pain of not knowing what is happening in the microservices architecture and how and why systems are behaving in production.

AppSignal integrates seamlessly with Prisma via OpenTelemetry to give you invaluable insights into how your application is performing. In this blog post, we'll outline how you can use AppSignal to optimize your application's Prisma integration, mitigate inefficient database queries, spot anomalies, and improve your application's scalability.

At KubeCon Europe, it was announced that Elastic Common Schema (ECS) has been accepted by OpenTelemetry (OTel) as a contribution to the project. The goal is to achieve convergence of ECS and OpenTelemetry’s Semantic Conventions (SemConv) into a single open schema that is maintained by OpenTelemetry. This FAQ details Elastic’s contribution of Elastic Common Schema to OpenTelemetry, how it will help drive the industry to a common schema, and its impact on observability and security.

At Lightstep, we’ve seen many organizations grapple with “cloud-native sticker shock” as they come to understand that these complex systems require sifting through massive amounts of data across architectures and proprietary solutions. In today’s macroeconomic environment, organizations are looking to reduce costs while driving innovation, especially when it comes to cloud-native applications.

Hey.NET engineers! Today, we’ll explore the world of OpenTelemetry, focusing on how it can benefit your.NET applications. We’ll talk about the strengths and weaknesses of OpenTelemetry, walk you through the setup process, discuss the basics, and share some best practices. Plus, we’ll touch on topics like auto-instrumentation, metrics, and more. So, let’s dive in!

Our OpenTelemetry data generator provides a seamless product-validation experience across all teams working in AppDynamics Cloud. OpenTelemetry™ is a complete telemetry system for monitoring both modern, distributed architectures in the cloud and more traditional on-prem applications.

In this second (and final) segment, we continue to show how our OpenTelemetry data generator provides a seamless product-validation experience across all teams working in AppDynamics Cloud. In the first part of this two-blog series, we provided a high-level overview of OpenTelemetry™ (or OTel). a complete telemetry system for monitoring both modern, distributed architectures in the cloud and more traditional on-prem applications.

The process of building and maintaining modern, cloud-based applications requires a new approach to infrastructure monitoring. Traditionally, engineers would try to isolate a specific infrastructure component causing an issue — and fix it alone, without diving into code. Today, DevOps engineers must understand how application performance is related to their infrastructure. Infrastructure, for DevOps engineers, is an enabler to deploy code.
