Distributed tracing with Grafana Tempo and OpenTelemetry | DevNation Tech Talk

Modern cloud-native applications require tailored observability tools to meet customer service-level agreements (SLAs) and ensure long-term success. The good news is that integrating observability into your applications is simpler than you think.
In this session, you'll learn the history of distributed tracing on OpenShift and get an introduction to the new tracing stack using Grafana Tempo and OpenTelemetry. You’ll also learn how to collect RED (request rate, error, and duration) metrics and traces from your application without a single code change using OpenTelemetry automatic instrumentation.
