Compatible telemetry

Import · Aug 31, 2023 · article

Cloud Observability can ingest and analyze metrics, logs, and traces from many different sources. While multiple formats exist for this telemetry data, the majority of enterprises recently are opting to use OpenTelemetry which Cloud Observability supports via native OTLP ingestion, directly from agents or from OpenTelemetry Collectors. Cloud Observability also has integrations available with major cloud providers such as AWS, GCP, and Azure, as well as popular infrastructure, services, and cloud-native components.
