How OpenTelemetry enables you to move fast with AI, without breaking things.
AI-assisted development is reshaping the profession of software development by allowing us to write more code, more quickly. Shipping these changes with confidence requires us to understand our systems at scale.
Without telemetry, we’re quite literally in the dark. The only way to understand how a piece of software is working is to look at its outputs, and the end user-facing outputs usually aren’t that useful when you’re trying to track down a bug or improve system performance across thousands or millions of users.
In this webinar, Austin Parker, Director of Open Source at Honeycomb, will discuss how OpenTelemetry and semantic telemetry will reshape observability.
Key learning points:
- How OpenTelemetry makes AI-assisted development safer and more effective
- OpenTelemetry's relationship to wide events and how it speeds the adoption of observability 2.0
- Why traditional tooling isn’t enough
- What is semantic data, and why is it important?
