OpenTelemetry and Jaeger | Key Features & Differences [2025]

OpenTelemetry is a broader, vendor-neutral framework for generating and collecting telemetry data (logs, metrics, traces), offering flexible backend integration.

Earlier Jaeger had its own SDKs based on OpenTracing APIs for instrumenting applications, but now Jaeger recommends using OpenTelemetry instrumentation and SDKs. Warning The original Jaeger client SDKs (based on OpenTracing) are archived and no longer maintained.

ICMP Monitoring: What Is ICMP & How It Works

Ever “pinged” a server and wondered what those milliseconds actually mean? If you’re a network admin or IT pro, you already use ping as a quick sniff test. But ICMP is more than a green checkmark or a scary timeout. In this article, we’ll define ICMP, walk through how echo requests and replies work, and show how to turn basic pings into useful network and ICMP monitoring.

Automate Your Infrastructure Analysis with Scheduled AI Reports

The least exciting part of an operations or SRE role is often the manual, repetitive task of generating reports. It’s the Monday morning scramble to summarize weekly infrastructure health for the team, or the end-of-quarter push to build a capacity planning document. This is boilerplate work that pulls you away from critical engineering tasks. We believe that if a process is repeatable, it should be automated. That’s why we’re introducing Scheduled AI Investigations and Insights.
