This workshop covers both the theory and practice of observability. You’ll familiarize yourself with both Honeycomb and OpenTelemetry with hands-on exercise, and also learn how to introduce observability into your organization.

You will learn:

• The velocity and reliability benefits of observability
• The differences between monitoring, telemetry signals, and observability
• How observability fits in with other progressive delivery techniques, such as continuous integration, feature flagging, and cloud-native microservices
• Sending trace data to Honeycomb from a sample application via OpenTelemetry
• Practicing the core analysis loop to identify performance issues using Honeycomb with the Home, Query Builder, Distributed Trace, and Raw Rows data views
• Adding application-specific metadata to further enrich your traces
• Sharing query results with your team
