The new customer onboarding has streamlined the overall onboarding workflow for new customers and users, resulting in faster times to insights, the Sumo Logic announcement stated. “What we’re also announcing is take every experience we have big and small … and making that not only OpenTelemetry compliant but OpenTelemetry native,” he said. It’s being rolled out with a new customer onboarding process, which the company announced Tuesday, but OpenTelemetry now works all the way into distributed tracing and span analytics of your application. Using OpenTelemetry standards allows Sumo Logic to work without the agent, Barak said. The result is upfront time savings when getting started - but that time will inevitably be collected back with an order of magnitude in accumulated interest if you decide to change tooling providers.” This instrumentation would be added in that vendor’s specific parlance, making it non-transferable to other implementations. “While each vendor provided some preconfigured baselines, maintainers would still need to manually add their own instrumentation to ensure that the insights reported to their vendor’s dashboard were relevant to their specific use case. “In order to provide richer diagnostic data than traditional monitoring tools, app maintainers would add vendor-specific agents or libraries to their projects,” Reynolds wrote in an article for The New Stack. OpenTelemetry also solves another problem with observability platforms: Vendor lock-in, according to Vera Reynolds, a senior telemetry engineer with Honeycomb. “ really, frankly, betting the farm on it because our customers are betting the farm on it.” OpenTelemetry Use Avoids Vendor Lock-in “It’s the most exciting part I think of all our announcements here is strongly leaning into the world of open telemetry, and really being - I believe from what we see - the leading and most groundbreaking enterprise vendor in terms of leveraging OTO,” Barak said. OpenTelemetry is an open standard for generating, collecting and exporting application telemetry across any number of backend systems. The big news from Sumo Logic, coming out of KubeCon+CloudNativeCon Europe 2023 in Amsterdam this week, is that the observability company is going all in on OpenTelemetry, according to Erez Barak, Sumo Logic’s vice president of product development for observability.
