OpenTelemetry: Observability for Mobiles with Hanson Ho from Embrace | DA #39

You all know what Observability is. But what do you know about the complexities of collecting telemetry data from mobile apps and devices, and how to do it with OpenTelemetry? That's the topic for Episode 39 of our #DevOpsAccents podcast with Hanson Ho, Android Architect at Embrace, the only user-focused, mobile-first observability solution built on OpenTelemetry. By providing actionable insights across DevOps and mobile teams, Embrace highlights the true impact of issues on user experience, not just on server performance. We discuss how this can be achieved with OpenTelemetry, if at all possible, and what are the main obstacles to achieving comprehensive observability for mobile applications.
