What you'll learn

Observability is the practice of collecting, analyzing, and visualizing metrics, logs, and traces to gain insights into the health and performance of distributed systems. In this course, OpenTelemetry: Observability with .NET and C#, you'll learn how to achieve observability in distributed systems using OpenTelemetry. First, you'll learn the fundamentals of observability to better understand the scenario you'll be working out. Next, you'll go through the set of tools you’ll be using and explore their role in your observability stack. Finally, you'll build a distributed system using .NET and C# and instrument it with OpenTelemetry to collect metrics, logs, and traces. When you’re finished with this course, you'll have the skills and knowledge of proper observability needed to apply these learnings in your current projects.
