Stateful workloads in Kubernetes need to be able to access persistent volumes across the cluster. Storage Classes represent different storage types in Kubernetes. A storage provisioner backs each storage class. Most commonly used cloud providers have storage provisioners, which offer different capabilities based on the underlying cloud. There are also a wide variety of storage provisioners available to Kubernetes, based on the cloud provider in use.

In this article we are going to explain Jaeger integration with the OpenTelemetry collector, describe differences between these two and have a look at Kubernetes deployment via Jaeger Operator. OpenTelemetry collector is a vendor-agnostic service for receiving, processing and exporting telemetry data. In the Jaeger project we have decided to deprecate the Jaeger collector and migrate its functionality to an implementation based on OpenTelemetry collector.
In our recent Tech Talk, Agentless Monitoring and Custom Monitors, OpsRamp’s Curt Thorin explained how agentless and custom monitoring are critical for distributed IT operations teams. The Tech Talk also provides an interactive demo of how agentless and custom monitoring capabilities can not only support remote work strategies but also prioritize digital transformation initiatives.
