In this episode of geeks+gurus, Sumo Logic's Melissa Sussmann and NGINX's Damian Curry will discuss the 4 key pillars of modern application architecture: Portability, Scalability, Resilience, and Agility. We then delve into a discussion around Open Telemetry (OTel) in the context of collection and logs management for modern applications. Disparate tracing, metrics, and logging can make it difficult to abide by the modern app pillars we outline. However, OTel offers a unified standard that can elevate observability in your deployment cycles.
