Making your CI/CD Pipelines Speaking in Tongues with OpenTelemetry - Ivan Fernandez Calvo & Victor Martinez, Elastic

Building and delivering software faster and better gained a different meaning with the introduction of pipeline-based technologies like Jenkins. Today, developers can automate the whole software development lifecycle by programmatically implementing build, testing, and deployment to achieve development agility. While this is great on the one hand, it poses an important question to be answered: what if the pipeline has a bug? For this reason, pipeline maintainers ought to have a strategy in place capable of verifying the pipeline code's accuracy, correctness, and reliability. Luckily for us, Jenkins allows this by providing a plugin compatible with OpenTelemetry — a technology that grants developers the ability to evaluate their code using an observability backend. This session will explain how this works and demonstrate how to get value from this.
