Gain Better Observability with OpenTelemetry and InfluxDB
Session date: Oct 09, 2024 08:00am (Pacific Time)
Many developers and DevOps engineers have become aware of using their observability data to gain greater insights into their infrastructure systems. InfluxDB is the purpose-built time series database used to collect metrics and gain observability into apps, servers, containers, and networks. Developers use InfluxDB to improve the quality and efficiency of their CI/CD pipelines. Start using InfluxDB to aggregate infrastructure and application performance monitoring metrics to enable better anomaly detection, root-cause analysis, and alerting.
This session will demonstrate how to record metrics, logs, and traces with one library — OpenTelemetry — and store them in one open source time series database — InfluxDB. Suyash will demonstrate how easy it is to set up the OpenTelemetry Operator for Kubernetes and to store and analyze your data in InfluxDB.
