- Context propagation and baggage across services
- Custom processors, samplers and exporters
- Advanced Collector configuration: receivers, processors, exporters
Wiring up market tools
- Exporting to Datadog, Grafana, Tempo, Prometheus and Jaeger
- Collector pipelines to several backends in parallel
- Correlating traces / metrics / logs in your dashboards
- Sampling strategies and cost control
OTCA certification prep
- The official OpenTelemetry Certified Associate curriculum
- Architecture and components: API, SDK and Collector
- Sample questions and reviewed mock exams
- Methodology and tips to succeed on exam day
