Honeycomb is building a service for the near and present future, defining observability and raising expectations of what developer tools can do. The OpenTelemetry team works in collaboration with the open source community to advance the standard for observability, build and improve open source SDKs and tools across a variety of programming languages, work with open standards around tracing and instrumentation, and enable customers to quickly and easily get their most valuable data into Honeycomb.
