Btw, if you are interested in distributed tracing, including the W3C and opentelemetry, we blog a weekly roundup about it here: https://lightstep.com/blog/category/distributed-tracing/

Actually, OpenTelemetry is compatible with OpenTracing, so the boom is still relevant. The distributed tracing APIs are very similar, but OpenTelemtry also includes metrics.

Thanks for rooting! I’m sorry it looks confusing. It took several iterations for the humans to converge on a single project, and achieve something like consensus about what we wanted. But it feels like we are there - there’s ~100 working on it now, and I don’t see any remaining blockers.
From the inside, it’s felt like steadily rolling up a larger and larger katamari ball, if you remember that game.

Yeah, it’s all getting stitched together. I would expect v1.0 of OpenTelemetry coming in March, with W3C Trace-Context headers as the default format for context propagation.

This is not true. I don’t like having my health care tied to my job - they are orthogonal concerns. But in the US, your employer does not have access to your healthcare records.

Imho, the interest is less about convenience, and more about reducing employment (fedex/amazon’s interest), combined with alphabet doing its reflexive moonshot thing. There isn’t a huge consumer demand for drones; like google glass, I expect that they will be taken aback at how negative the reaction is.

I suspect that fb is dialing back their ambitions with libra, to something that is more like a regular money transfer service. PayPal and other partners would naturally be less interested in that; it’s just more competition.

I posted this article because I found precise mobile tracking such as this to be a genuine privacy violation. IMHO, this is much more invasive that passively tracking web activity.

Cool beans!

Hi Mycoliza! One of the authors of OpenTelemetry here. It would be great to see an OpenTelemetry implementation in Rust. If you're interested in bootstrapping a group to work on that, please let me know!

The article only mentions Android. Does anyone know what the process is for iPhones at the border?

Can’t believe they didn’t mention the cherry (pepperoni?) on top: PepsiCo also got Gorbachev to huck some Pizza Hut for them: https://youtu.be/fgm14D1jHUw

It's getting started soon:
https://github.com/open-telemetry/community/blob/master/comm...
We have a very performant prototype!
One usde case I am excited about: taking the OpenTelemetry C++ SDK, and binding it to the OpenTelemetry interfaces in other languages, such as Ruby and Python.
Some runtimes may see a performance boost by running the observability code independently from the GIL, GC, etc.

Hi all! Author here; happy to answer any questions about the OpenTelemetry merger.
