Description
This session from KubeCon + CloudNativeCon Europe 2023 provides an overview of OpenTelemetry's capabilities beyond just capturing signals. It dives into the importance of unified semantic conventions for correlating, aggregating, and processing data across traces, metrics, and logs. The presentation also includes a project update, covering new developments like logging as a signal, profiling, client instrumentation, and advancements in configuration and integrations. The speakers also discuss the merger with the Elastic Common Schema (ECS) to create a single standard for semantic conventions and highlight the project's growth and community engagement.
