25 minutes

This phase takes the exact same “naked” application code from Phase 2 and deploys it to Kubernetes using the Splunk OTel Collector Helm chart .

The collector is deployed via Helm, and OBI is enabled with a single flag obi.enabled=true which deploys the OBI DaemonSet to instrument every pod on every node.
