Hello Matt,
For Your Information
- I'm writing a PoC to instrument Jenkins with OpenTelemetry.
- code: https://github.com/cyrille-leclerc/opentelemetry-plugin
- My focus for the moment is tracing the execution of jobs with
OpenTelemetry distributed traces
- I have a glitch for which I am asking for help
on https://groups.google.com/g/jenkinsci-dev/c/TEMMId7vzh0
- I plan later down the road to instrument:
- Jobs with OpenTelemetry metrics and logs
- Jenkins internals with OpenTelemetry metrics and logs
- We could also instrument Jenkins HTTP requests as you said
As OpenTelemetry is emerging as the standard for Observability / Monitoring
with integrations with most observability technologies, open source and
commercial, such as Jaeger, Elastic, Prometheus...), this integration will
enable CI monitoring to most Jenkins users.
