Harness the power of the OpenTelemetry Collector
Are you ready to take your metrics, traces, and logs to the next level? Your data is the lifeblood of your operations, but traditional monitoring tools often fall short, offering limited insights and leaving you hunting for problems in the dark.
Using OTel’s automatic instrumentation for popular languages, teams can receive tracing instrumentation data with only a few hours’ work. Or, instrument manually to get even richer data and more flexible configuration. Engineers can also attach their existing logs to traces.
In this workshop, Howard Yoo and Vivian Lobo will guide you through from the concept and basics of OpenTelemetry collector, to how you can configure and run it to receive, process, and export your metrics, traces, and logs to Honeycomb.
