Getting started with cloud native telemetry pipelines
Are you ready for getting started with cloud native observability with telemetry pipelines? This workshop will guide you through the open source project Fluent Bit, what it is, a basic installation, and setting up a first telemetry pipeline project. Learn how to manage your cloud native data from source to destination using the telemetry pipeline phases covering collection, aggregation, transformation, and forwarding from any source to any destination. Buckle up for a fun ride as you learn by doing, exploring how telemetry pipelines work, how to set up your first pipeline, and exploring several common use cases that Fluent Bit helps solve.
This workshop will guide us through the open source project Fluent Bit, what it is, a basic installation, and setting up our first telemetry pipelines. The workshop is self-paced and available online, so attendees can continue to explore after the event:
Introduction to instrumentation with OpenTelemetry
Great observability begins with great instrumentation! Learn how to adopt OpenTelemetry by instrumenting a sample Python application with spans and metrics. Starting by exploring “out-of-the-box” automatic instrumentation then progressing to manually instrumenting where needed to add metadata. You’ll leave with an understanding of how telemetry travels from your application to the Collector and ready to bring OpenTelemetry to your project.
Attendees to this workshop will go hands-on with labs for learning what OpenTelemetry is, how to install it locally, and get started collecting and querying their first tracing data. The workshop is self-paced and available online, so attendees can continue to explore after the event:
Getting started with open dashboards and visualization
Are you interested in the concepts of cloud native observability (o11y), where monitoring, dashboards, and all that goes with that play a central role in your life? Are you part of a DevOps team looking to put together some simple yet powerful custom dashboards but are not sure where to start? This session will take you through the freely available online workshop that teaches you everything you need to know about Perses, the newest member of the CoreDash community. It's a project providing you the tooling you need to create crisp, clear, and informative dashboards for your cloud native o11y needs. Join us for an hour of power where attendees will be guided through what the Perses project is, how to install the project locally, and get started building your first dashboard(s).
Attendees to this workshop will go hands-on with labs for learning what Perses is, how to install it locally or in a container, and get started designing their first dashboards and visualizations. The workshop is self-paced and available online, so attendees can continue to explore after the event:
Prometheus fundamentals
Ready to break free from vendor lock-in and predatory pricing from your SaaS observability vendor? It’s time to learn more about Prometheus, a free and open-source systems monitoring and alerting tool kit that enables you to discover, collect, and query your observability data. Join us for this workshop designed to expand your knowledge of open-source observability tools, including how they are used and how they are different from the proprietary instrumentation you use today. This hands-on workshop is designed to help central observability team leaders, engineering managers, and site reliability engineers (SREs) get enough background to start moving their teams away from proprietary instrumentation and get them started with open-source observability. During the workshop, you will install Prometheus, collect metrics, and learn how to effectively run it in your observability stack. Get started today and so your team can hit the ground running with open-source observability!
