Managing over 1000 services and applications is daunting for any organization’s IT and Tech operations team. With a diverse mix of on-premises legacy systems and modern cloud stacks, the sheer volume of activity can overwhelm even the most skilled ITOps teams. The task is made more difficult by the fact that observability is fragmented. On average, organizations depend on 21 systems that produce metrics, logs, traces, and alerts for various services.

Arguably, OpenTelemetry exists to (greatly) increase usage of tracing and metrics among developers.
