Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

OpenTelemetry in 2023
Oh nice, thank you (and also solumos) for the links! It looks like oteps/pull/171 (merged June 2023) expanded and superseded the opentelemetry-proto/pull/346 PR (closed Jul 2022) [0]. The former resulted in merging OpenTelemetry Enhancement Proposal 156 [1], with some interesting results especially for 'Phase 2' where they implemented columnar storage end-to-end (see the Validation section [2]):
* For univariate time series, OTel Arrow is 2 to 2.5 better in terms of bandwidth reduction ... and the end-to-end speed is 3.1 to 11.2 times faster
* For multivariate time series, OTel Arrow is 3 to 7 times better in terms of bandwidth reduction ... Phase 2 has [not yet] been .. estimated but similar results are expected.
* For logs, OTel Arrow is 1.6 to 2 times better in terms of bandwidth reduction ... and the end-to-end speed is 2.3 to 4.86 times faster
* For traces, OTel Arrow is 1.7 to 2.8 times better in terms of bandwidth reduction ... and the end-to-end speed is 3.37 to 6.16 times faster

Grafana Phlare, open source database for continuous profiling at scale
https://github.com/open-telemetry/oteps/issues/139
It takes a lot of time and effort to bake a cross-vendor cross-language standard.

Faster Protocol Buffers
This. The statelessness of the OTLP is by design. I did consider stateful designs with e.g. shared state dictionary compression but eventually chose not to, so that the intermediaries can remain stateless.
An extension to OTLP that uses shared state (and columnar encoding) to achieve more compact representation and is suitable for the last network leg in the data delivery path has been proposed and may become a reality in the future: https://github.com/open-telemetry/oteps/pull/171

OpenTelemetry in 2023
Grafana Tempo also switched from Protobuf storage format to Apache Parquet last year. It's fully open source, and the proposal is here: https://github.com/grafana/tempo/blob/main/docs/design-propo...
disclosure: I work for Grafana!

Monitoring and Testing Cloud Native APIs with Grafana
By combining Grafana Tempo with Tracetest, you can create a robust solution for monitoring and testing APIs with distributed tracing.

Introducing Tempo: low latency, cross-platform, end-to-end typesafe APIs
Last point: There's already a major open source project in the backend space called Tempo. You may want to reconsider the name.

Waffles, Fries, Beer and Developers; Notes from FOSDEM 2023
I started the day with some Rust and spent the rest of the day in the Monitoring and Observability DevRoom. Most of the talks I attended were about OpenTelemetry and were very Grafana Labs-heavy. I knew Grafana and, to a less extent, Loki, and I had never seen Tempo (distributed tracing) and Phlare (profiling), and Mimir (backend for metrics, more backend-y than Prometheus?).
