OpenTelemetry 101

Used by the world’s largest organizations, OpenTelemetry has become the open source standard for collecting and transforming telemetry data. In this webinar, we’ll discuss what you should consider before adopting OpenTelemetry as well as the steps to take as you rollout to production.

Why OpenTelemetry?

OpenTelemetry is quickly becoming the gold standard for collecting and standardizing observability signals—metrics, logs, and traces.

By unifying diverse data sources with an open-source, vendor-neutral approach, teams avoid lock-in, reduce complexity, and gain better control over their telemetry.

Why OpenTelemetry Collector?

Central to this ecosystem is the OpenTelemetry Collector, which can run either as an agent on each host or as a scalable gateway. With phased adoption strategies—starting small, then gradually replacing legacy instrumentation—organizations can steadily migrate to OTel without disrupting existing workflows.

For those ready to streamline large-scale deployments, OpAMP supports remote collector management, while BindPlane provides a unified platform for configuration and cost optimization.
