Thanks to everyone who has contributed to OpenTelemetry to date, and we +look forward to your continued contributions in 2025 and beyond! 🎉 + +## Transcript + +If reading is more your thing, the transcript of our conversations are below. + +### 1- Meet the Humans of OTel + +**Hazel Weakly:** Hey there. My name is Hazel Weakly and I have thoughts, lots +of thoughts. They never stop thinking. And they never stop thinking. + +**Eromosele Akhigbe:** My name is Eromosele Akhigbe: and I'm currently a +software engineer at Sematext. Hello everyone. + +**Budha Bhattacharya:** I am Budha. I'm a developer advocate at Tyk. Apart from +that I've got a very deep relationship with open standards because I'm also the +board chair for the OpenAPI Initiative and a board member for the GraphQL +Foundation. + +**Miguel Luna:** My name is Miguel Luna and I'm a product manager at Elastic +where I'm the product lead for the OpenTelemetry efforts across the company and +what we contribute to the to the community. + +**Adriana Villela:** My name is Adriana Villela and I'm a Principal Developer +Advocate at Dynatrace. + +**David Gohberg:** My name is David and I work Monday dot com. I'm a software +engineer and I work there on the CRM product. + +**Endre Sara:** My name is Endre Sara, I'm the co-founder of a company called +Causely. I started Causely two years ago. + +**Braydon Kains:** My name is Braydon Kains. I'm a software developer at Google +in the Google Cloud Org. I work for the Cloud Observability service and I mainly +work on agents that customers install in their environments to collect telemetry +signals and send them to Google Cloud. + +**Christos Markou:** My name is Christos. I'm a software engineer at Elastic. I +have been working mainly in observability over the past five years now and since +last year I have been contributing mostly to the OpenTelemetry ecosystem. + +**Reese Lee:** Hi, my name is Reese Lee and I am a Senior Developer Relations +Engineer at New Relic. + +### 2- How did you get involved in OpenTelemetry? + +**Hazel Weakly:** OpenTelemetry. So I got into the project sort of almost +accidentally, although I think at this point that's an answer that I give for +everything. When I mean accidentally, it was I was, looking for answers to +questions that I had and more importantly, how do I teach other people to find +answers to questions better and how do I continue to level up the teams that I +worked with, the organizations that I worked with and in figuring out how to get +people better at asking questions, getting answers, and learning from that? I +finally stumbled onto OpenTelemetry. + +**Eromosele Akhigbe:** In March, I entered an internship called Outreachy and in +Outreachy I was privileged to work on OpenTelemetry and I worked on building a +logging bridge in Golang, and by the end of the internship I was able to build a +logging bridge using OTel zerolog. + +**Budha Bhattacharya:** How did I get involved with OpenTelemetry? This is a +multi part question or answer, I think in this case, because there were a couple +of, couple of reasons why it caught my attention. Starting off with actually +advocacy from our new group product manager who had recently joined and she was +a big proponent of observability and OpenTelemetry specifically. I kind of had +played around with OpenTracing and OpenCensus for a little while, but I hadn't +really looked into OpenTelemetry. But once she came in I was a huge advocate for +it and that got my attention. That was trigger number one. Trigger number two +was the fact that it was this open standard. So I think anything open standards +to me is a no brainer. + +I've got a lot of time to invest in any sort of open standard that makes life +easy. I think from a flexibility standpoint that's the way to go. So that was +trigger number two. Trigger number three was actually when we started using +OpenTelemetry. So we are an API management platform at Tyk. For us, +OpenTelemetry was being used internally as well as externally. So internally we +could already start seeing results in terms of how quickly and efficiently we +were getting to troubleshoot problems and getting to the heart of issues. And +not just limited to rest APIs but actually with GraphQL APIs as well, which you +wouldn't have considered as a possible use case. But we were able to remediate +some of those issues that we were facing with that. So that was sort of trigger +number three. And all of that collectively came together to say, hey, +OpenTelemetry deserves attention. + +**Miguel Luna:** Initially I started as a product manager. It was a very +interesting role because I started in a role where it was more about +coordination rather than contributing directly. But I've been recently involved +in the localization of the documentation. So that means translating the +documentation, more specifically in my case among Spanish speakers. So, la +traducción de la telemetria abierta. So, the traduction...the translation into +the Spanish of the OpenTelemetry documentation. + +**Adriana Villela:** At my previous role, my manager at the time, as part of it, +he encouraged me to actually join the OpenTelemetry community. And it was +actually my first time ever contributing to open source and I never contributed +to open source. I've been in tech for like over 20 years and my manager +basically said, yeah, just attend a couple meetings. And my first meeting was +for the OTel comms. And so that was kind of my gateway into OpenTelemetry. + +**David Gohberg:** I started my career in embedded applications and I was doing +eBPF tracing before that was even a thing. And I then moved into Dropbox where +all our telemetry was in-house before OpenTelemetry was mainstream and now on +Monday I continue doing trace-based testing. + +**Endre Sara:** I started to learn about OpenTelemetry. I realized that this is +such an opportunity for the whole industry to actually commoditize and +standardize how instrumentation is being done and to be able to use common +semantic conventions so people can understand what's going on. So I got +instantly excited and I started to work on it. First it was just a few test +applications, then I played with and demoed to people on how to do +instrumentation. But as we started our current company, from day one I said we +have to make sure that we are properly instrumenting our software so that we can +actually operate this as we get more customers for logs, metrics and disability +testing, it has been helping us a lot. + +**Braydon Kains:** I got involved in OpenTelemetry because our team uses +OpenTelemetry, namely the OpenTelemetry Collector, to support our customers +collecting data off of their environments. When we had bugs and issues with +OpenTelemetry in the past, there would be some light involvement from the team, +but largely we would open an issue and sort of wait for. Wait for it to get +addressed. And I really wanted to change that within the group. And I wasn't the +only one on our team who wanted to change that. So, you know, we all sort of +started to make a more genuine effort to open issues that came with PRs. And +that has generally moved our whole team forward into being more involved in +OTel. And I've ended up being much more involved in OTel to the point where now +I'm a code owner on the Host Metrics Receiver, which is an important receiver to +us, but I get to dedicate more time to making sure it's good for everyone and +not just fixing our own problem. + +**Christos Markou:** I was originally asked to contribute to the OpenTelemetry +by helping with the Elastic Common Schema donation to the OpenTelemetry, +specifically to the specification and the semantic conventions. And since then I +have been more and more involved in other projects like the Collector. And right +now I'm mainly focusing on the semantic conventions and the OpenTelemetry +Collector, specifically the Collector contrib project. + +**Reese Lee:** The way I got involved in OpenTelemetry was at New Relic. And at +first my first experience with it was through some support tickets that we +started to get around some of our customers who had adopted OpenTelemetry. And +then I had a great opportunity to join our dedicated OpenTelemetry team at the +time as a developer relations engineer. And this was back in November 2021. And +I was able to integrate within the OpenTelemetry community pretty soon after +that. And actually my previous manager, Sharr Creeden, she kind of spearheaded +the work to build the End User Working Group at the time, and now we are the End +User SIG. + +### 3- How has OpenTelemetry helped you? + +**Hazel Weakly:** OpenTelemetry has been really useful at my organizations that +I've worked on because it's become something that you can tie into different +vendors, tie into different tools, and into other intermediary ways. And the +huge benefit of it for me is that I can take all these different bits of +knowledge, not necessarily signals, but different bits of context from the +company, tie it all together in a way that I can show people these answers to +their questions, regardless of whether or not they're in engineering. And that +is a new capability because previously engineering was kind of in its own bubble +and increasingly it really can't continue to do that. And so OpenTelemetry has +been super impactful for me for bringing our knowledge outside of engineering +and bringing the outside knowledge into engineering. + +**Budha Bhattacharya:** Things have become a lot more efficient internally. When +I talk to our SRE teams, our DevOps teams, they're a lot happier when they're +interacting or working with different elements of our platform stack. It's a lot +easier to manage and handle it. Now when I talk about the end users, they can +truly talk about the value of it. And personally, I think just the advocacy side +of things, I think has been really, really enriching for me to learn more about +it. Being involved with the community in different ways. Earlier this year I had +the privilege of putting together a mini conference called LEAP, which was the +API Observability Conference, where a lot of the folks from the community were +able to scroll, speak to the different areas and elements of OpenTelemetry, not +just limited to, again, the engineering side of things, but also how decision +makers could perceive the value of adopting something like OpenTelemetry within +their organization. + +**Miguel Luna:** It all started when Elastic, we decided to donate the Elastic +Common Schema, which was a natural fit to the goals of OpenTelemetry, or +standardizing observability and driving efficiency across getting telemetry data +converged into a single standard. + +**David Gohberg:** When I just started my career, there was no OpenTelemetry, so +I had to figure out how to do traces and how to correlate them with metrics and +how to do logs. But now all this effort has already been standardized by the +community, so new engineers that are onboarding into OpenTelemetry have a much +easier time than I have. + +**Endre Sara:** In general, I think that the ability to be able to take signals +from your application and to be able to use them to operate the environment to +understand the behavior of the system is significantly easier with OpenTelemetry +than it was with other proprietary instrumentations in the past. What I think is +more interesting is what do you do with this data? Is most of this information +is being exposed to people in dashboards which are amazingly nicely presented, +contextualized based on semantic conventions. But I think that the biggest +advantage is to be able to use software to reasonably data. + +**Braydon Kains:** The main way OpenTelemetry has helped me personally is really +learning how to interact with a large community. I already had some experience +with open source communities and there is this sort of general culture of like, +you know, you do the work, you get a say in the project. That's pretty common in +the open source world and I think that's fine. But OpenTelemetry has a very +large structure for getting changes in. + +**Christos Markou:** I really like working with the OpenTelemetry ecosystem in +general because I believe that working with people from other companies, other +teams, helps me personally as an engineer a lot because I see how other people +do observability out there. So I keep learning a lot. So that's something that I +really like and I believe in general my team is also really helped by this, by +this fact and also for my job. I mean it's amazing because I really love open +source, I really love working with open source projects. And yeah, I think that +on a personal level it's really helpful. + +**Reese Lee:** OpenTelemetry has helped me personally in honestly really big +way, in the sense that working in developer relations with OpenTelemetry, I've +gotten to meet a lot of wonderful people which I talked about earlier. But as +part of my role I get to submit topics to different events and part of that is +being able to learn about all these different topics myself and being able to +talk to people who are using in production or trying it on themselves has been a +really wonderful experience. + +### 4- What does Observability mean to you? + +**Hazel Weakly:** My definition of observability, it is the process through +which one develops the ability to ask meaningful questions, get useful answers +and then act effectively on when you learn. So what I mean by that is it's not +enough to be able to kind of figure out the answer. There's this process where +you have to actually work on it over and over and over and you're developing a +skill not just on a personal level, but on an organization level, on a group +level, and in even broader an industry level. So as you continue to do that, +continue to get those really, really useful answers and really, really +meaningful questions that you can ask. You start to have this whole process of +group learning that transcends the boundaries that we draw for ourselves and +lets those boundaries become empowering rather than limiting. + +**Eromosele Akhigbe:** Observability Engineers are like the doctors of your +system. So if something is going wrong in your system, you need us to be able to +pinpoint where exactly or what exactly is wrong and how to solve whatever is +wrong. So that's what observability means to me. + +**Budha Bhattacharya:** What does observability mean to me? There is a technical +answer to this, where it goes into the realm of perhaps monitoring, perhaps +logging, and, you know, getting to the troubleshooting of all things. To me, +it's all about understanding. It is essentially understanding the pulse of your +platform that you have created. I work with APIs quite a lot, so everything +underlying is all to do with API platforms. So understanding the pulse of your +API platform, the different components coming together and knowing exactly +what's functioning, not functioning, the good, bad and ugly of it all, that, to +me, is what observability is all about. So to be able to get to that part of the +problem, to be able to know what's working, what's not working, and making +decisions more effectively. + +**Miguel Luna:** Monitoring means knowing answers to questions that you know you +needed to ask. Observability means knowing questions to answers that you didn't +know that you need to ask. + +**Adriana Villela:** To me, observability means the ability to get insights into +your system. And for me, like, this was extremely transformative, because, like, +there's so many times in my life where, you know, I was, like, debugging code, +whether it was like my own code, like, as a developer or code in production, and +not understanding, like, just looking through logs and not understanding, like, +okay, but how does this relate to the bigger picture? Like, I have so many +memories of, like, troubleshooting production issues, and it's like, oh, the +system is slow. So you ask the person who's responsible for administering the +app server, hey, can you check the logs? No, not my problem. You ask the DBA, +no, no, it's not my problem. And then you ask whoever else, and you go down the +whole line and, like, it's nobody's problem. And yet you're still seeing +latency. And I feel like observability kind of like it. It uncloaks the whole +thing because all of a sudden it exposes. Like, it exposes where the actual root +cause is. And I think that's the magic and power of observability. + +**David Gohberg:** The most important thing in software engineering today is the +user experience. And because our software is getting much more complex, it's +getting harder to answer the question, how are my users experiencing my product? +And OpenTelemetry allows us to answer these difficult questions and provide us +with visibility into our software. + +**Endre Sara:** I think that probably the most obvious answer is to be able to +collect signals. But I think that the real point of observability is to +understand and reason about the behavior of the systems. Simply collecting data +doesn't actually accomplish much. I think also with the becomes meaningful and +valuable, and people are able to use this to drive actions, to drive decisions. +Where do I need to improve reliability? Where do I need to improve the +performance of my application? Where do I need to make architectural changes? I +think observability is really serving that. Otherwise it's just a lake of data. + +**Braydon Kains:** Observability means to me that you can tell what's going on. +Computers are black boxes that understand what ones and zeros do. And being able +as a human to understand what ones and zeros are doing at any given time, when a +computer is blazing so fast, how would you ever be able to figure out what that +means? So observability to me is the human version of understanding what a +computer is doing. + +**Christos Markou:** So for me, observability is something that I. I have been +working on since university, and it's a really important area because I think +that what really matters when we are running systems, it's the way that you can +observe your systems, you can know if your systems are doing good or not. And +specifically, I'm coming from an infrastructure background, as I mentioned +before. So for infrastructure specifically, it's really, really important when +it comes to cost reduction. And this sort of stuff or how the whole system is +working is an important piece that you cannot miss. + +**Reese Lee:** Observability to me means that I, as an end user of various +applications and software programs, get to have a better experience because the +companies that build these products, you know, assuming that they're using +observability and being able to stay on top of issues that are happening in +their code, it means I get to have a better experience as an end user. + +### 5- What does OpenTelemetry mean to you? + +**Hazel Weakly:** OpenTelemetry to me is one really interesting approach towards +building something that takes a very sort of capitalistic notion of companies +need to be profitable, companies wanting to innovate, people wanting to compete, +and people want to develop different solutions to things. And how do you wrap +all that together in a project that's flexible enough to allow that competition, +to allow those ideas to happen, and to allow this Innovation to continue without +limiting what's possible and without burdening the industry with the +intermediate details of the evolution of that complex, the evolution of pursuing +excellence. + +**Eromosele Akhigbe:** OpenTelemetry is, I believe, the future of observability. +In March, when I started doing research on OpenTelemetry, I discovered how big +this can be and I decided that I was going to go in fully into OpenTelemetry. So +I believe that it's the future of observability and everyone should take it. + +**Budha Bhattacharya:** What does OpenTelemetry mean? To me that's an extension +of that understanding. In a way it's the. Well, again, the technical answer to +this would be, is the open standard that essentially powers distributed tracing. +That's all fine. To me it's the extension of that understanding by creating a +common language or framework, however you want to put it, that the different +components and elements of your platform stack can unite together to speak to +the health of your overall platform. And that could go from the engineering +standpoint all the way to the business standpoint. There are repercussions to +both of those. So to me that's what OpenTelemetry as a technology brings, both +from a business and a technical standpoint. But it's also about the community as +well. It's sort of again the industry coming together and agreeing on a standard +so that the life of SRE, DevOps organizations, tooling providers, end users, all +of their lives are made a lot more easier because by virtue of having an open +standard, it means that your platform is a lot more flexible, you have a lot +more freedom to evolve, to mature and actually be a bit more future ready. So +that to me is the promise of flexibility and freedom that OpenTelemetry brings. + +**Miguel Luna:** For me it means a common language. So it's a place where we +all, where users can made and at least understand that everything that we are +going to collect is going to be collect in a similar way, with a similar +mechanism. Also what we call things. So the semantic conventions we, we agree on +common standards of what, what are we going to call things? So the telemetry is +the same and it can be reusable. So yeah, so that's, that's OpenTelemetry for +me. + +**Adriana Villela:** What does OpenTelemetry mean to me? To me, you know, it's, +it feels like home actually, because it's been like my home for the last like +two and a half years. So it's been like really transformative in my life because +it's like I said, was my gateway into like open source, into the CNCF community. +And so it takes on like a very personal flavor for me, just beyond like the, you +know, the, the typical definition of OpenTelemetry, which is like this open +standard for instrumenting your code. For me, it's just so much more than that. +It really is like this lovely community where we're working with different +vendors from across the board and we're not enemies, we're all friends because +we're working towards the same goal. + +**David Gohberg:** OpenTelemetry is basically a way to standardize all the +efforts, all the engineers that want to ask all the difficult questions about +software. + +**Endre Sara:** OpenTelemetry gives a way for multiple vendors to work together, +to collaborate together and take the instrumentation as a given that is not a +function of competition and really focus on adding value on how this information +turns into an actionable insight. And I think that that is really where people, +vendors, end users are expecting to innovate in. So OpenTelemetry is basically +the enabler for vendors to focus on where the real value is. + +**Braydon Kains:** OpenTelemetry to me is a representation of the industry +coming together and understanding, you know, what are we competing about really? +Like what are, where are we really as different companies trying to fit in the +market? And I think we all sort of collectively understand that the signals +themselves really aren't worth differentiating on. It's generally a net negative +for everyone for us to not agree on this stuff. And if we can agree on the +signal part, it just leaves everyone, all companies, more time to differentiate +in the ways that, that actually are tangible in terms of how the data works. + +**Christos Markou:** Having been involved in OpenTelemetry over the past year, I +think that OpenTelemetry is a great place to learn things and meet other people +that are really passionate about the whole observability area. And I think that +consists of people that really like what they are doing and they are really good +at this. So it's a great place for engineers to come together and work and share +the observability space to evolve. + +**Reese Lee:** OpenTelemetry to me means a lot of things, you know, beyond the +project and kind of the way it's helped different organizations, you know, move +into and adopt open source throughout their stack. It's also such a huge, +wonderful community. I really enjoy meeting the maintainers and getting to know +the end users. I have really good relationships with a lot of the OpenTelemetry +community people and that's what it means to me. + +### 6- What's your favorite OpenTelemetry signal? + +**Hazel Weakly:** My favorite OpenTelemetry signal. I'm going to cheat a little +bit here and I'm going to say my favorite OpenTelemetry signal is the one that +gives people the answer that they find most useful for the question that they +find most use meaningful. + +**Eromosele Akhigbe:** Traces. Traces are my favorite signal because, like, they +give a full, you know, a full picture of everything going on in the system and +you can easily spot on errors. + +**Budha Bhattacharya:** Favorite OpenTelemetry signal. This is, this is a tough +one. I think traces has to take the win at this point of time because again, +just thinking about how things connect well. I'm also very, very keenly pursuing +profiling. I think that's going to be potentially the winner in the next +conversation we have because I think performance is a big area for a lot of +organizations and especially when, as an API gateway, when we are working with +different components, we have one part of the API platform stack to know if +there are potential bottlenecks. Are we a bottleneck? Are there other elements +that are potential bottlenecks there? How do we improve performance? How do we +actually put our money where the numbers are, essentially? That's what profiling +again, sort of promises to a point? + +**Miguel Luna:** Because of the background, Elastic, I gotta say logs. But of +course, you know, it's. The logs are, you know, they. They bring like deep +contextual insights, but at the end of the day, you need them all. Like metrics +are gonna let us know there is a problem. Tracing is gonna help us to understand +where the problem is, and logs are gonna help us understand what the problem is. + +**Adriana Villela:** My favorite signal is traces because I fell in love with +observability and OpenTelemetry because of traces. + +**David Gohberg:** I would have to say that I got the most value out of tracing. +But recently I started to correlate traces with metrics, and I think that is +like the golden flow. + +**Endre Sara:** I have been a huge fan of distributed tracing in general. I +think it gives you the understanding of how big, like, services interact with +each other. But I've been growing to like profiling. I think it gives +interesting, exciting opportunities on how people understand even deeper how +their systems behave, especially how their systems behave under different flow, +different conditions, and to be able to adjust, improve their architectures and +the scale of their systems to cater to future loads. + +**Braydon Kains:** My favorite OpenTelemetry signal right now is logs, because +even though I'm fully immersed in OpenTelemetry now and I know what all three of +the signals mean, I started on logs because logs are easy. It just makes so much +sense and I understand where people are coming from, coming from with +observability, second wave, you know, everything should just be trace or lot +wide events. I understand the value of that, but I just feel like logs aren't +ever going away. + +**Christos Markou:** My favorite signal coming from an infrastructure and +systems background. I really like metrics, and this is something that actually +is my personal goal for the next months. Coming to help a lot stabilizing +metrics like system metrics in the semantic conventions and Kubernetes metrics +as well, and make the collector providing more confidence to our users because +having the semantic stable, that will help us. + +**Reese Lee:** My favorite signal. You know, I want to say traces, because they +were kind of the first thing I learned when I got into the world of +observability to begin with, and I think that was kind of what my mind +understood.
