Did you know that Jaegerv2 came out a couple of days ago? No more agents and stuff, all in on OpenTelemetry.
Jaeger also has a superior UI. This is @wiggitywhitney's professional opinion and nobody is allowed to disagree 😂
Glad to know I'm not the only person who runs "git commit -m 'something'" on the regular. 😂
"Anyways! It should maybe work! Who knows! Git commit! Git push! Kubectl! Argh ahhh!"
No, actually that's the QOTD
Trying to set up observability for Hero, our app who just wants to be in production. Our choice is going to be Prometheus or Pixie!
Hero just made his first metric, isn't it cute?
Let's also talk about Pixie! It lets you instrument your applications with eBPF!
Alrighty, we voted, and Pixie it is! It was installed ahead of time because Pixie takes an infinite amount of time to install.
Oh look Prometheus has problems, introducing Thanos and Cortex.
"We can store an unlimited amount of data for an infinite amount of time!"
Wow TIL. 😂
"But you can do clickops if you really want to"
"Ok by the way, if you voted for Pixie you made a huge mistake. You'll see why in a little bit."
We're interacting with it via CLI because Viktor doesn't like UIs. 😂
