OpenTelemetry Collector¶
OpenTelemetry provides a framework for creating and managing telemetry data such as traces, metrics and logs. It has several components, including libraries for instrumenting your application and a vendor-agnostic Collector. The Collector sends data to Observe using the OpenTelemetry endpoint.
I don’t have an OpenTelemetry Collector¶
Install Observe Agent on Kubernetes first, and configure your application instrumentation
I already have an OpenTelemetry Collector¶
Configure your OpenTelemetry Collector to export data over OTLP/HTTP to Observe’s OpenTelemetry endpoint. For information on how to do this, see the OpenTelemetry Endpoint.
