Anyone who’s concerned with developing, delivering, and operating software knows the importance of making software and the systems it runs on observable. That is, relying on metrics, logs, and traces to understand what software is doing and where it’s running into snags. OpenTelemetry is a free and open source take on observability.

Loosely defined, observability is the ability to understand what’s happening inside a system from the knowledge of the external data it produces, which are usually logs, metrics, and traces. Logs, metrics, and traces make up the bulk of all telemetry data. To appreciate what OTel does, it helps to understand observability.
