18:00: Check-in and welcome 👋

18:15 🎙️ “OpenTelemetry 101” by Imma Valls - Staff Developer Advocate at Grafana Labs

A brief introduction to OpenTelemetry, with a practical example of auto-instrumenting a Java web application with the Grafana stack (Loki, Grafana, Tempo, and Mimir).

19:00 🎙️ "OpenTelemetry outside k8s: a journey of observability independence" by Christian Polanco, Senior Platform Engineer @ Amenitiz

At Amenitiz, we took the journey of creating a more modern observability stack, one that allows developers to test faster and measure more.
We found that moving our observability to open-source technologies like OpenTelemetry and Prometheus unlocked that future.

20:00 - 21:00 Networking, Snacks, and Drinks 🍻🍕

We want to extend our gratitude to Trainline for hosting us and to Grafana Labs for providing food 🥟 and refreshments 🧃🍻

Don't miss this opportunity to connect with fellow observability enthusiasts and deepen your understanding of OpenTelemetry!
