Insights from OpenSource Summit & OpenTelemetry Day

Recorded live in Denver, this special episode captures the vibrant atmosphere of Open Source Summit North America, OpenObservabilityCon, and OpenTelemetry Day (June 23–25). I had the chance to speak with several brilliant minds pushing the boundaries of observability.

🔍 Featured Interviews:
Fatih E. Nar – on Harnessing Observability for 5G Performance using eBPF and OpenTelemetry.
Jamie Danielson & Yuri Oliveira sa – breaking down the Life of a Span in a dynamic and insightful talk.
Endre Sara – discussing the importance of topology reporting and his work with the Entity SIG, presented in The Signal in the Storm: Practical Strategies for Managing Telemetry Overload.
Mike Heffner & Ray Jenkins, co-founders of Streamfold – introducing Rotel, a Rust-based collector for traces, metrics, and logs.
Denton Krietz from BindPlane – sharing best practices on persistent queues in telemetry collectors.

🎧 Whether you're deep into observability or just getting started, this episode offers a front-row seat to the latest innovations and community energy.
