About this episode

This episode discusses OpenTelemetry's CNCF graduation, the introduction of Continuous Profiling, and the eBPF profiling agent.

OpenTelemetry has officially reached CNCF graduation this month, marking a major milestone for one of the most widely adopted open observability projects. In this episode of OpenObservability Talks, we unpack what this graduation really means for the project and for users out there. We also revisit the newest observability signal in OpenTelemetry, Continuous Profiling, which was released in public alpha. We explore where the effort currently stands, the adoption and usage best practices. Finally, we dive into the OpenTelemetry eBPF profiling agent and how it aims to dramatically simplify the adoption of continuous profiling for developers and platform teams. Our guest for this episode is Israel Ogbole, CEO & Co-founder of Zymtrace and member of the OTel Profiling SIG. Prior to founding zymtrace, he served as Principal Product Manager at Elastic, where he led Universal Profiling. He also led the donation of Elastic’s eBPF CPU profiler to OpenTelemetry. Israel also worked at Cisco AppDynamics and at Microsoft, with rich background in observability.
