Welcome to this month’s edition of **OpenTelemetry in Focus**! It's been another
|
||||
busy month in the OpenTelemetry community, with some big announcements and new
|
||||
releases from our core repositories. I'll also be sharing some highlights from
|
||||
OpenTelemetry at KubeCon EU, which was a blast. Can't wait for Chicago this
|
||||
fall!
|
||||
|
||||
Are you a maintainer with something you’d like featured here? Get in touch with
|
||||
me [via email](mailto:austin@lightstep.com), or on the
|
||||
[CNCF Slack #otel-comms](https://cloud-native.slack.com/archives/C02UN96HZH6)
|
||||
channel.
|
||||
|
||||
## Releases and Updates
|
||||
|
||||
Here are the latest updates from some of our core repositories.
|
||||
|
||||
##### [Specification](/docs/reference/specification/)
|
||||
|
||||
[Version 1.20](https://github.com/open-telemetry/opentelemetry-specification/releases/tag/v1.20.0)
|
||||
has been released, and it's a big one!
|
||||
|
||||
First, **OpenTelemetry Protocol** has been declared stable! Second, we've
|
||||
started a process to converge the
|
||||
[Elastic Common Schema with OpenTelemetry Semantic Conventions](/blog/2023/ecs-otel-semconv-convergence/).
|
||||
What does this mean? At a high level, you can expect to see that semantic
|
||||
conventions will split out of the specification as we proceed towards aligning
|
||||
our standards. Please be on the look out for more information.
|
||||
|
||||
Other changes include:
|
||||
|
||||
- Changes to span and metric SDK details.
|
||||
- Clean up the log bridge API.
|
||||
- Key stability work for existing Semantic Conventions.
|
||||
- Breaking change to `http.server.active_requests` metric; The
|
||||
`http.status_code` attribute is no longer present.
|
||||
|
||||
##### [Collector](/docs/collector/) and contrib
|
||||
|
||||
[Version 0.76.1/v1.0-rcv0011](https://github.com/open-telemetry/opentelemetry-collector-releases/releases/tag/v0.76.1)
|
||||
has been released for the collector. The
|
||||
[operator](https://github.com/open-telemetry/opentelemetry-operator/releases/tag/v0.75.0)
|
||||
has been updated to v0.75.0, adding support for feature gates in the operator.
|
||||
|
||||
This release includes several bug fixes and improvements to connectors, along
|
||||
with a breaking change to the `confmap` component.
|
||||
|
||||
##### [Go](/docs/instrumentation/go/)
|
||||
|
||||
[Version v1.15.0](https://github.com/open-telemetry/opentelemetry-go/releases/tag/v1.15.0)
|
||||
has been released! This marks the official release of OpenTelemetry Metrics v1
|
||||
in Go. Please check out the full release notes, as there are several important
|
||||
changes and renamings, especially if you're using metrics.
|
||||
|
||||
##### [Java](/docs/instrumentation/java/)
|
||||
|
||||
[Version 1.25.0](https://github.com/open-telemetry/opentelemetry-java/releases/tag/v1.25.0)
|
||||
of the Java SDK has been released, with several bugfixes and improvements.
|
||||
Please note that this includes a change to exponential bucket histograms, please
|
||||
see the release notes for details if you rely on automatic configuration of
|
||||
histograms.
|
||||
|
||||
In addition, the
|
||||
[Java Instrumentation](https://github.com/open-telemetry/opentelemetry-java-instrumentation/releases/tag/v1.25.1)
|
||||
package has been updated to 1.25.1 as well. Highlights include:
|
||||
|
||||
- New instrumentation added for R2DBC, JFR streaming metrics, and ZIO 2.0
|
||||
- Passwords no longer emitted from db.user when using JDBC instrumentation.
|
||||
- Apache HTTP Client library now emits client metrics as well.
|
||||
- Alignment with semantic conventions.
|
||||
|
||||
There's much more -- be sure to check out the release notes!
|
||||
|
||||
## Project Updates
|
||||
|
||||
KubeCon EU saw over ten thousand cloud-native developers gather in Amsterdam,
|
||||
and a lot of you stopped by the OpenTelemetry booth to say hi! Hopefully some of
|
||||
you got your hands on our limited-edition KubeCon stickers... if not, well,
|
||||
there'll be more limited edition stickers. Just not for KubeCon, because it's
|
||||
come and gone.
|
||||
|
||||
There was a lot of great feedback that we're excited to tackle as a project over
|
||||
the coming months, including:
|
||||
|
||||
- Improving discoverability of components for the collector.
|
||||
- Increasing responsiveness to PR's and issues.
|
||||
- Finishing up the Logging Bridge API and getting logs to stability.
|
||||
|
||||
There were also a lot of great talks from the Observability community at
|
||||
KubeCon, including at
|
||||
[Observability Day Europe](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2VuAIhL3xG4&list=PLj6h78yzYM2ORxwcjTn4RLAOQOYjvQ2A3).
|
||||
Go check it out if you have some time, there's some really interesting
|
||||
real-world examples in there of how people are using OpenTelemetry!
|
||||
|
||||
## News and Upcoming Events
|
||||
|
||||
[OpenCensus is being sunset](https://opentelemetry.io/blog/2023/sunsetting-opencensus/)
|
||||
in July 2023. Once this has concluded, our initial goal of OpenTelemetry as a
|
||||
single replacement for OpenTracing and OpenCensus will have been realized!
