Open Source Observability Day is a specialized conference focused on the latest advancements and trends in observability within the open-source ecosystem.
It is the first event to unite the open-source monitoring and observability community, bringing together experts, developers, and enthusiasts to discuss tools, best practices, and real-world case studies for monitoring and improving software systems. The event provides a platform for networking, knowledge sharing, and collaboration among the open-source community.
Today we are caught between the 2nd and 3rd waves of system observability – the proprietary approaches of the past are fading fast in favor of open source instrumentation. Pioneering projects like OpenTelemetry and Prometheus are leading the way providing a path for competitors to cooperate for the benefit of the community.
Let’s look back at the 3 waves of observability to understand how we got here, the vision for the future and ways you can join us for the journey to liberate telemetry for all!
