#OTel is for everyone...even other open source projects! Find out how #Dapr contributors improved tracing observability with #OpenTelemetry.
“Kubernetes is our platform.”
That sentence has caused pain.
In the latest Code RED Podcast, @kaspernissen.xyz talks with Mauricio Salatino about why #Kubernetes works best as a foundation, not a #platform.
Running it well at scale requires much more than the cluster.

#OpenTelemetry is in its operations era.
2026 is about running it day-to-day without losing signal.
New Code RED from @kaspernissen.xyz: 10k Slack messages on where #observability teams get stuck, plus OTel governance and the real SRE bottleneck: operational maturity.

Time to rethink observability as a platform capability, with @kaspernissen.xyz (@dash0.com) at #TechHubAarhus
If you want to contribute to OTel but don't know how to start, check the episode of Code RED that just came out, where I give some tips on how to start!
I had a blast participating, thank you @kaspernissen.xyz for the invite!

Once #telemetry is flowing, the real question is how to keep it usable.
Code RED #25 by @kaspernissen.xyz looks at that layer of #observability, from log deduplication and pipeline hygiene to keeping signals structured enough to reason about.

In large projects like #OpenTelemetry, getting your first PR reviewed involves more than just the code.
In Code RED, @kaspernissen.xyz talks with Marylia Gutierrez about what influences reviews at scale, why they can take time, and how contributors grow into maintainers.

Async workflows are great for building systems.
Observing them end-to-end is hard.
At #ContainerDays London, @kaspernissen.xyz and Mauricio Salatino show how teams keep distributed workflows observable with #Dapr + #OpenTelemetry - when systems stop being linear.
You will also find us at Booth A6👋
The #observability work that sticks is rarely dramatic. Most of the time, it’s calibration.
In Code RED #26, @kaspernissen.xyz looks at smarter sampling, Collector resilience, and the evolving Prometheus + #OpenTelemetry relationship.
