What is OpenTelemetry?

"Software is eating the World," and this is particularly true if you have to keep your solution running non-stop, even after changes are made to your production environment, without creating disruptions for your users.

We used to rely on traditional APM vendors (Application Performance Monitoring or Application Performance Management), and those vendors would provide the tools needed to manage failures and pinpoint problems.
