If you want to get logs from your Java application ingested into an OpenTelemetry-compatible logs backend, the easiest and recommended way is using an OpenTelemetry protocol (OTLP) exporter. However, some scenarios require logs to be output to files or stdout due to organizational or reliability needs. A common approach to centralize logs is to use unstructured logs, parse them with regular expressions, and add contextual attributes. However, regular expression parsing is problematic. They be...| OpenTelemetry
At Skyscanner, as in many organizations, teams tend to follow specific runbooks for individual failure modes. With modern and complex distributed systems, this has the downside of most of the errors being unknowns, which makes runbooks only partially applicable. After migrating our telemetry data to the OpenTelemetry standards at Skyscanner, we now have richer instrumentation and can rely on observability directly. As a result, we are ready to adopt a new observability mindset, which requires...| OpenTelemetry

While OpenTelemetry (OTel) is here to help you with troubleshooting and handling the “unknown unknowns”, it is also instrumental for managing route tasks like monitoring system metrics, like disk usage, server availability or SSL certificate expiration dates. This can be achieved by utilizing any one of the 90+ receivers available for the OpenTelemetry Collector, such as the Host Metrics Receiver or the HTTP Check Receiver. But what if the available receivers don’t meet your specific ne...| OpenTelemetry
In the following, we will walk through how to do logs collection with OpenTelemetry (OTel). To keep things simple, we will use Python as the demonstration programming language, however note that at time of writing the logs support there is still early days so things might need some updating. We will show the evolution from using print statements for logging (Baby Grogu level) to logging to a file along with the OpenTelemetry Collector (Expert Grogu level) to using the OTel logs bridge API to ...| OpenTelemetry
OTel integration! Cloud Foundry recently integrated the OpenTelemetry Collector for metrics egress and we learned a lot along the way. We’re excited about what the integration offers today and all the possibilities it opens up for us. What we were looking for Cloud Foundry is a large multi-tenant platform as a service that runs 12-factor applications. Cloud Foundry platform engineering teams usually run 4 to 8 Cloud Foundry deployments running thousands of applications and hundreds of thous...| OpenTelemetry
With contributions from Rynn Mancuso (Honeycomb) and Reese Lee (New Relic). On Thursday, May 25th, 2023, the OpenTelemetry (OTel) End User Working Group hosted its third End User Q&A session of 2023. We had a bit of a gap due to KubeCon Europe, but now we’re back! This series is a monthly casual discussion with a team using OpenTelemetry in production. The goal is to learn more about their environment, their successes, and the challenges that they face, and to share it with the community, s...| OpenTelemetry
