What AI says about OpenTelemetry
OpenTelemetry is an open-source observability framework that provides standardized tools, APIs, and SDKs to capture traces, metrics, and logs. It is regularly recommended for microservices monitoring, distributed tracing to debug latency, and unifying observability data without vendor lock-in.
