Announcing the general availability of AWS .NET OpenTelemetry libraries

Observability has become a crucial aspect of modern software development, enabling developers to gain insights into the behavior and performance of their applications. The OpenTelemetry project, a Cloud Native Computing Foundation (CNCF) hosted project, has emerged as a powerful solution for generating, collecting, and exporting telemetry data, providing a vendor-neutral and standardized approach to observability.

.NET Observability – Part 2: Logs using Fluent Bit and Amazon OpenSearch

Microservices architecture is a popular approach to building software applications, but it comes with some challenges when it comes to observability. For example, in a microservice architecture, services are loosely coupled and communicate over the network. This makes it challenging to trace a request as it travels through multiple services. In part 1 of this […]

.NET Observability with OpenTelemetry – Part 1: Metrics using Amazon Managed Prometheus and Grafana

Microservice architectures, while modular and scalable, introduce complexity in observability due to the distributed nature of services. This often leads to a proliferation of inter-service communication paths and dependencies. It is not uncommon for solutions to have microservices interacting with each other, native cloud services, and partner solutions. In distributed microservice architectures, developers face the […]
