Balancing Act: Cutting Kubernetes Event Storage Costs Without Losing Visibility with OpenTelemetry

A few weeks ago I wrote a blog post about efficient Kubernetes event tracking. In that blog post I explained how you can collect Kubernetes events using OpenTelemetry, and I also explained why I think OpenTelemetry is a great solution for Kubernetes event collection.

Efficient Kubernetes Event Tracking: A Hands-On Guide to Seamless OpenTelemetry Integration

One of the most important aspects of Kubernetes monitoring is event tracking. It allows you to understand the behavior of your Kubernetes cluster and the applications running on it. They are a great way to understand what is happening in your cluster and how it is performing.

Observability strategies to not overload engineering teams – eBPF.

eBPF is a powerful technology since it allows you to inject custom user-definition programs in the kernel without having to install additional kernel modules or recompile the kernel itself.

Observability strategies to not overload engineering teams — OpenTelemetry Strategy.

OpenTelemetry provides capabilities to democratize observability data and empowers engineering teams.

Observability strategies to not overload engineering teams — Proxy Strategy.

A web proxy is a perfect place to start collecting telemetry data without required engineering efforts.

Observability strategies to not overload engineering teams.

No doubt, implementing a certain level of Observability at your company without requiring engineering effort, is a dream for everyone on that journey. Today I’m gonna share with you strategies, to help you implement Observability without adding cognitive load on your engineering teams.
