Open Telemetry
OpenTelemetry Integration with Elastic – Unified Observability at Scale
PG Services empowers modern organizations with end-to-end observability by integrating OpenTelemetry with the Elastic Stack. This powerful combination enables centralized logging, distributed tracing, and real-time metrics collection across complex environments—delivering deep insights and operational efficiency.
What is OpenTelemetry?
OpenTelemetry is an open-source, vendor-neutral observability framework for cloud-native applications. It provides standardized APIs, SDKs, and instrumentation libraries to capture consistent telemetry data—including traces, metrics, and logs—across services, platforms, and programming languages.
Key Components of OpenTelemetry Integration
OpenTelemetry + Elastic Stack
OpenTelemetry seamlessly integrates with Elasticsearch, Logstash, and Kibana, enabling the collection, processing, and visualization of telemetry data within a unified ELK-based observability ecosystem.
Collection & Ingestion
Using standardized protocols like HTTP and gRPC, OpenTelemetry exports telemetry data from distributed applications directly into the Elastic Stack for analysis. This allows for efficient capture of granular metrics, application traces, and logs.
Standardized Telemetry
OpenTelemetry ensures uniform data collection across all components—allowing Elastic Stack services to ingest, store, and analyze observability data with full consistency. This standardization enhances traceability, comparison, and root cause analysis across distributed architectures.
Real-Time Monitoring
Elastic ingests telemetry data in real time, enabling responsive dashboards and immediate alerts via Kibana. This real-time monitoring supports rapid issue detection and performance optimization—keeping your systems reliable and user experience intact.
Enhanced Observability
Combined with Elastic’s visualization and analytics capabilities, OpenTelemetry provides deep visibility into system dependencies, latency bottlenecks, user behaviors, and anomaly detection. This enables DevOps, SRE, and platform teams to take data-driven action confidently and efficiently.
