Telemetry boundary

OpenTelemetry

A vendor-neutral instrumentation layer connecting application behavior to metrics, logs, and traces.

01 / Why it exists

The platform should explain what it is doing without coupling every workload to one observability backend.

02 / Architecture

Applications emit telemetry through OpenTelemetry conventions and collectors. Prometheus, Loki, Tempo, and Grafana provide storage, correlation, and investigation surfaces.

03 / Lessons

What operation taught me.

  1. 01Instrumentation is part of application architecture.
  2. 02Correlation matters more than collecting another isolated signal.

Screenshots

Operational captures will be added when they can be safely published.

Public configuration will appear here when the boundary is ready.
