Streaming metrics out with OpenTelemetry
What OpenTelemetry standardises, why teams stream their metrics into a single monitoring tool of their own choosing, and what Voroa exposes about services.
What this covers
OpenTelemetry is an open standard for how metrics, traces and logs are described and shipped. Its point is to break the tie between where your application runs and which monitoring product you use: an application instrumented once can send data to any tool that speaks the standard, and swapping tools does not mean instrumenting everything again. Teams that run services across more than one platform care about this most, because it gives them one place to look instead of one dashboard per provider.
Streaming metrics out of Voroa is not available today. Your application can, of course, send its own metrics to any provider you choose from inside your code.
