Migrating from #Fluentd to the OpenTelemetry Collector?

Fluentd buffers to disk. The Collector defaults to memory - so a pod restart can mean lost #logging data.

Here’s how to configure #OpenTelemetry persistent queues safely.

Ever looked at a distributed trace that felt incomplete?

The async workflow in between often breaks the trace.

@kaspernissen.xyz teamed up with Mauricio Salatino to show how #Dapr Workflows can keep a single, end-to-end trace using #OpenTelemetry.

Still treating logs like simple strings?

With #OpenTelemetry, existing logs are represented as structured events and correlated with traces through automatic context propagation.

A more usable #logging and #observability strategy starts here:

It’s all fun and games until your #observability agent actually triggers the outage 😅

Shahar Azulay joins Code RED to unpack observability economics, #eBPF adoption, and pricing incentives.

Plus, how #AI is reshaping the next generation of workflows.

For years, #observability has promised smarter alerts.
Most teams are still dealing with noise.

On Jan 27, Michele Mancioppi (Dash0) joins Thomas Johnson and Amy Tobey for a #LeadDev panel on what #agentic observability actually looks like today.

Some “#AI for #SRE” tools ask you to trust their answers without showing how they were produced.

#Agent0 takes a different approach: every conclusion is inspectable, not just the summary.

If OpenTelemetry has gone from
“we should use this” to “do we actually understand what we’re seeing?”

You’re not alone.

Next week, Orlin Vasilev and Julia Furst Morgado unpack what #observability really looks like with #OpenTelemetry - no deep prior knowledge required.

Few aspects of logging cause more confusion and debate than severity levels.

Is a retried database connection a WARN, or just normal behavior?

We’ve published a practical framework for using severity levels consistently with #OpenTelemetry, across teams and languages.

#Prometheus metrics can tell you that a system is broken - not why.

Locked-down #AWS VPCs still sending telemetry over the public internet?

A #telemetry spike can push the #OpenTelemetry Collector over the edge.

When buffers swell, #OOM means data loss - right when #observability matters most.

Dash0, just over a year apart.

Same core team.
A lot more people around the table.

The work got deeper.
Standards went up.
And we’re still growing.

If you’re thinking about a new role where your work would actually matter, this might be a good moment to take a look.

Closing out 2025.

The team grew.
The work went deeper.
And Dash0 changed in ways you can feel.

We raised $35M in Series A, and Agent0 became a core part of how teams work with observability - cutting through noise and making complex systems easier.

Thanks to everyone who built with us this year.

During the holidays, production doesn’t slow down.

People are out. Context gets thin.
When something breaks, you still need answers, fast.

Dash0 helps teams keep system context intact, so issues are easier to understand and fix at the root.

Worth a look!

PostgreSQL logs aren’t trace-aware by default.
So when a query is slow, you often know what happened - not who triggered it or why.

Some things land differently when you work remotely.

So when we do get time together in person, it changes the dynamic - conversations open up, context fills in.

A quiet reminder of why in-person time still matters.
Grateful for moments like this.

At KubeCon NA, @kaspernissen.xyz made a simple point: good AI starts with good telemetry.

He sat down with William Chia to talk about how AI, observability, and platform engineering are starting to intersect - and why open, structured signals matter more than ever.

Most #observability problems don’t come from a lack of data.
They come from too much of it.
