Hands-On OpenTelemetry, Docker, and K8s

2 minutes   Author Derek Mitchell

In this workshop, you’ll get hands-on experience with the following:

  • Practice deploying the collector and instrumenting a .NET application with the Splunk distribution of OpenTelemetry .NET in Linux and Kubernetes environments.
  • Practice “dockerizing” a .NET application, running it in Docker, and then adding Splunk OpenTelemetry instrumentation.
  • Practice deploying the Splunk distro of the collector in a K8s environment using Helm. Then customize the collector config and troubleshoot an issue.

The workshop uses a simple .NET application to illustrate these concepts. Let’s get started!
