Lightning Talk: 5 Minutes to Value, Strategies for Faster Observability Onboarding

5 Minutes to Value, Strategies for Faster Observability Onboarding This session will cover strategies and best practices for improving Time To Value for observability onboarding, learned from helping onboard thousands of users with the instrumentation packages that are now a core part of most OpenTelemetry clients. Primarily, it will focus on novel configuration strategies when creating client instrumentation packages. These approaches help solve one of the biggest Onboarding challenges: How can users augment their telemetry with context specific to their business use case, without having to maintain huge chunks of custom, hard to maintain OpenTelemetry manual instrumentation code in their application?"

Lightning Talk: Controlling Your Data with the OpenTelemetry Collector

How do people change telemetry data to support use-cases including PII redaction, downsampling, custom tags and fixing instrumentation flaws? The OpenTelemetry Collector! Telemetry data contains a lot of valuable information, but sometimes that data may or may not contain what people want. Modifying telemetry data by updating instrumentation often proves challenging due in part to application impact. The OpenTelemetry project solves this problem by providing a pluggable architecture in the OpenTelemetry Collector. Learn how others have configured it to support a variety of different use-cases.

Sponsored Talk: Planning for Observability

Open Telemetry opens up a path for the fully open-sourced instrumentation of critical applications, but whether your strategy involves self-hosted open source or vendor tools, many of the challenges remain the same. In this short talk, Nica will cover the key strategies for ensuring observability. We’ll cover:
- What is observability anyway?
- Towards observable architecture
- Structured logging
- Usability of monitoring data
- Growing your team’s observability skills."
