Alibaba, Datadog, and Quesma Join Forces on Go Compile-Time Instrumentation
Standards are only useful if they’re widely adopted, and adoption is only effective if the available tooling facilitates it. I imagine SI units would not have been too popular when they were introduced if you had to build your own scales to weigh things in Kilograms!
If you use OpenTelemetry in Go, you’ll be familiar with the challenges of configuring instrumentation libraries to automatically generate telemetry from well-known open source components. Due to the compiled nature of the language, you currently have two options1:
Observability: the present and future, with Charity Majors

Overhauling PagerDuty’s data model: a better way to route alerts | Blog
PagerDuty has long been the go-to solution for reliable on-call management, but its aging data model and lack of innovation have become a challenge. In this post we explore how incident.io On-call offers a better, more flexible approach to alert routing and provide practical advice on how to migrate smoothly from PagerDuty.

Improve visibility into Amazon Bedrock usage and performance with Amazon CloudWatch | Amazon Web Services
In this blog post, we will share some of capabilities to help you get quick and easy visibility into Amazon Bedrock workloads in context of your broader application. We will use the contextual conversational assistant example in the Amazon Bedrock GitHub repository to provide examples of how you can customize these views to further enhance visibility, tailored to your use case. Specifically, we will describe how you can use the new automatic dashboard in Amazon CloudWatch to get a single pane of glass visibility into the usage and performance of Amazon Bedrock models and gain end-to-end visibility by customizing dashboards with widgets that provide visibility and insights into components and operations such as Retrieval Augmented Generation in your application.

OpenTelemetry (OTel) is an open source, vendor-neutral observability framework that supplies APIs, SDKs, and tools to instrument, generate, collect, and export telemetry data (metrics, logs, traces and soon profiles). It has a vibrant ecosystem of components, integrations and vendors.,In this episode, Juliano Costa will discuss OpenTelemetry with Felix Geisendörfer, Senior Staff Engineer on the Continuous Profiling team, and Pablo Baeyens, Software Engineer on the OpenTelemetry team.,They will explore the current state of the profiling signal within OpenTelemetry and the progress made so far. The conversation will also cover the road to the OTel Collector 1.0 release and why this milestone is crucial for the broader community. Additionally, they will dig into the challenges of OpenTelemetry at Datadog from an engineering perspective and discuss what the future holds for this integration.,By the end of the episode, you'll gain a deeper understanding of OpenTelemetry and how the Datadog team is contributing to its growth. You’ll also hear about the current challenges facing the team and what’s on the horizon.
