Troubleshooting a session in Edgar When we started building Edgar four years ago, there were very few open-source distributed tracing systems that satisfied our needs. Our tactical approach was to use Netflix-specific libraries for collecting traces from Java-based streaming services until open source tracer libraries matured.

Although many companies adopt solutions such as OpenTelemetry, Prometheus, and Grafana as part of their observability strategy, they often confront a common data analysis problem: data silos. As a solution, teams often adopt open source observability tools like OpenTelemetry to gain situational awareness of their cloud-native environments.

Limits of a lift-and-shift approach A traditional lift-and-shift approach, where teams migrate a monolithic application directly onto hardware hosted in the cloud, may seem like the logical first step toward application transformation. Many organizations also find it useful to use an open source observability tool, such as OpenTelemetry.
