Spring Boot - Monitor your application with OpenTelemetry & SigNoz

In this video, we show a step by step process to monitor your Spring Boot application with OpenTelemetry. We use SigNoz as the backend and visualisation UI. SigNoz is an open source alternative to DataDog, NewRelic, etc. We natively support Opentelemetry based instrumentation. You can instrument any application written in a language/framework supported by OpenTelemetry and visualise metrics and traces in SigNoz.
