OpenTelemetry (OTel) is an open-source, vendor-neutral standard for generating, collecting, and exporting telemetry data. Backed by the CNCF, it’s the industry norm for instrumenting distributed systems.It unifies three core signal types:
Traces – End-to-end workflows across services
Logs – Structured, timestamped events
Metrics – Numeric signals representing system health
PlayerZero integrates with OTel to correlate backend telemetry with real user sessions in the frontend. By supporting the native OTLP format, we enable you to:
Use existing OTel exporters or collectors
Ingest logs, traces, and metrics in real time
Enrich these signals with user identity and session context
Connect issues to the commit, release, or function that caused them
You choose how to instrument your code; PlayerZero adds user and code insights to each signal.
While traditional observability platforms excel at dashboards and alerts, PlayerZero focuses on end-to-end issue resolution. We bridge your backend data with user sessions and code commits to surface what truly impacts customers.
