    This repository contains the OpenTelemetry Astronomy Shop, a microservice-based distributed system intended to illustrate the implementation of OpenTelemetry in a near real-world environment.

  • Examples and the tutorial in this blog post use the OpenTelemetry Astronomy Shop Demo to show what you can do with OpenTelemetry and New Relic. This application is built and maintained by the OpenTelemetry open-source community, and it provides a real-world example of a distributed application that’s been instrumented with OpenTelemetry. In the Deploying the OpenTelemetry Astronomy Shop demo app section, you’ll have an opportunity to get hands-on experience spinning up your own version of this application. You’ll learn how to:

  • terraform-provider-newrelic

    Terraform provider for New Relic

  • You could configure these manually in the New Relic UI, but here you’ll learn how to use the New Relic Terraform Provider to automate creating these entities instead.

  • InfluxDB

    Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale. Get real-time insights from all types of time series data with InfluxDB. Ingest, query, and analyze billions of data points in real-time with unbounded cardinality.

  • opentelemetry-demo

    OpenTelemetry Community Demo Application (by newrelic)

  • New Relic created a fork of the OpenTelemetry demo application, which builds on the community demo app by adding:

  • opentelemetry-go

    OpenTelemetry Go API and SDK

  • OpenTelemetry is an open source project (opentelemetry.io) and unified standard for service instrumentation that provides an application programming interface (API), libraries, integrations, and a software development kit (SDK) for programming languages including Java, Go, and Python.

  • kind

    Kubernetes IN Docker - local clusters for testing Kubernetes

  • A pre-existing Kubernetes 1.23+ Cluster (You can spin up a local cluster using minikube or kind.)

  • WorkOS

    The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.
