SUMMARY:Cloud Native PDX September: Observability Night
DESCRIPTION:Cloud Native PDX\nCloud Native PDX September: Observability Ni
 ght!\n\nFor September\, we're taking advantage of a speaker in town for De
 vOpsDaysPDX\, and making it an all-observability night\, with FluentBit an
 d OpenTelemetry.\n\nDate: Wednesday\, September 16\, 2026\nTime: 6:00 PM 
 – 8:00 PM\nLocation: SteepleJack Brewing\, Fireside Room\, 2400 NE Broad
 way\, Portland\n\nA big thank you to **SUSE** for sponsoring catering at S
 teepleJack\, as well as Eric's travel.\n\n**First Presentation: No C\, No 
 Opaque AI: Watch Your First Fluent Bit Contribution Happen Live**\n\nSpeak
 er: Eric D. Schabell\, SUSE\n\nContributing to a CNCF graduated project fe
 els out of reach until someone shows you exactly how it happens. In this s
 ession\, that someone is on stage doing it in real time — spotting a gap
  between what the Fluent Bit codebase actually does and what the docs say\
 , opening a branch on a live fork\, running the project's prose linter\, w
 riting a properly signed commit\, and pushing a pull request that closes a
  real tracked issue. Every step\, no shortcuts\, no slides pretending to b
 e a terminal.\nYou will leave knowing the two-repo mental model that makes
  Fluent Bit doc contributions work\, the git habits that signal credibilit
 y to maintainers\, and the AI guardrails that keep your name attached to w
 ork you actually stand behind. Your first PR does not require deep C knowl
 edge. It requires knowing where to look\, how to show your work\, and when
  to keep your hands on the wheel.\n\n**Second Presentation: Devs\, Transfo
 rm (Your Data) and Roll Out!: Learning and Leveraging OTTL**\n\nSpeaker: R
 eese Lee\, New Relic\n\nThe OpenTelemetry Collector is OTel’s power tool
  for ingesting and processing your app and infrastructure data\, but there
 ’s even more you can do with your data before it reaches your backend! L
 earn how to start leveraging OTTL\, or OpenTelemetry Transformation Langua
 ge\, to manage your data volume and quality. We’ll explore the syntax ba
 sics and its underlying architecture within the Collector\, where its stre
 ngth really comes into play\, when to use it (or not!)\, and more.
