OpenTelemetry Is Too Complicated
VictoriaMetrics CTO here.
The referred library is the official OpenTelemetry package for reading metrics in Go language [1] - more details are available at [2].
Note that we at VictoriaMetrics like the idea of unified observability standard like OpenTelemetry. The issue is in the current otel implementation. It is too bloated and very inefficient. This contradicts to our experience with observability cases, which need very optimized format for metrics' transfer in order to reduce costs on CPU and network traffic needed to transfer and process these metrics.
VictoriaMetrics continues investing in OpenTelemetry by providing integration docs [3] and improving the existing functionality for otel metrics' ingestion [4].

Top 11 Grafana Alternatives in 2023
VictoriaMetrics is primarily a time-series database designed for efficiently storing and querying time-series data. It is often used as a back-end data store for time-series data generated by monitoring systems like Prometheus. VictoriaMetrics excels at handling large volumes of time-series data, offering efficient storage and query capabilities.

InfluxDB CTO: Why We Moved from Go to Rust
Not sure I follow since there are very competitive tools written in Go such as https://victoriametrics.com for an example in this space.

μMon: Stupid simple monitoring
Did you try VictoriaMetrics [1] and vmagent [2]? It is a single self-contained binary without external dependencies. It requires relatively low amounts of CPU, RAM, disk space and disk IO, and it runs on ARM.

If I understanding correctly, it deal with high cardinality by dropping data, the operators need to monitor for this and adjust their data to lower the cardinality.

OpenTelemetry in 2023
You shouldn't unless you want to use the new open source standard for telemetry. You won't benefit from simplicity or performance improvements. It would be quite the opposite. You can check what is the actual cost of open telemetry adoption here [0]
But if you ever decide to go this path - VictoriaMetrics supports OpenTelemetry protocol for metrics [1]

Right way to link containers on host vs custom network.
That's the thing, I do need network_mode: host on telegraf in order to get host network statistics. See here or here

Telegraf Inputs.SMART
After screwing around with it for a while, I was able to get inputs.smart working... but I'm not thrilled with the answer. According to this in order for you to get the SMART data inside a container you need to edit the sudoers file inside the container.

Learnings from integrating JMX based metrics from Java applications into time series databases
I’ve been using the Jolokia agent with telegraf to push JVM metrics into InfluxDB (among other things). I think it can be used with Prometheus too.

Help with reading modbus using telegraf
I have two devices; both are connected to a Raspberry Pi using a USB converter as Slave 1 and 2. I want to get some readings using Telegraf software https://github.com/influxdata/telegraf/tree/release-1.26/plugins/inputs/modbus (happy to try any other linux software), but I'm having trouble (I'm seriously confused to be honest) with byte_order, data_type, and input register addresses.
