OpenTelemetry
OpenTelemetry is the open standard for observability. It provides a unified API for traces, metrics, and logs across languages and platforms.
The resources below cover instrumentation, collectors, exporters, context propagation, and OTLP. Each guide helps you add observability without vendor lock-in.
Every resource includes clear explanations, copy-paste code, and practical warnings. Use them to make informed decisions, avoid production pitfalls, and speed up your delivery. If you are just getting started, read the beginner-friendly articles first; if you are experienced, jump straight to the advanced patterns and architecture guides. New resources are added regularly, so bookmark this page and check back for the latest patterns.
