Exchange traces and metrics with OTLP-compliant senders and targets
The OpenTelemetry Protocol (OTLP) supports instrumenting, generating, and processing telemetry data (metrics and traces) to analyze software’s performance and behavior. The protocol is open-source and vendor-neutral.
How to get the data flowing:
This is a built-in integration between Cribl Stream and OTLP-compliant senders and targets.
OTel as Source and LogStream as a destination
Configure Stream to listen for OTel data via Sources > OpenTelemetry.
Specify the address, port, optional authentication and TLS settings, and optional throttling and extraction parameters.
Stream will start fetching data as it becomes available.
