OTel updates¶
Two updates from the official OTel blog that you may want to take a look at:
- In The Humans of OpenTelemetry - KubeCon EU 2025, you can learn more about the folks behind the project.
- OpenTelemetry Protocol with Apache Arrow - Phase 2 Announcement is a short post updating you on the work around column-oriented data.
Monitoring Minecraft¶
The one and only Michele Mancioppi wrote about Monitoring Minecraft with OpenTelemetry, and that really made my day!
Riding that OTel wave¶
It has been some time, so I'm glad to be able to share with you that Embrace once again gathers experts to discuss the OpenTelemetry project: note down next Thursday, May 22 and participate via the sign-up form.
Query languages¶
In the 33 min YouTube video Observability Pipeline Query Languages: Present and the Future Jacek Migdal (Quesma) dives deep into the topic, covering pipelines, query languages, and what to expect in this space.
AWS-managed open-source o11y¶
My colleagues Imaya Kumar Jagannathan, Kevin Lewin, Priyanka Verma, and Joshua Bright discuss AWS-managed open-source observability and show it in action: check out the 1h YouTube video Open Source Observability on AWS | EP 07.
That was it for this edition of the o11y newsletter. Feel free to share news items with me via Bluesky DM. Stay safe and hope to see you around next week!
