And what we do in Google Cloud is that we still use the pprof. But it's a kind of forked version of the pprof because the visualization part is totally different. So we give that tool as the Cloud Profiler. So that is the product name. And then, the difference between the pprof and a Cloud Profiler is that Cloud Profiler provides the agent library for each famous programming language such as Java, Python, Node.js, and Go. And then what you need to do is to just write 5 to 10 lines of code in a new application. That launches the profile agent in your application as a subsidiary thread of the main thread. And then, that thread periodically collects the profile data of the application and then sends that data back to Google Cloud and the Cloud Profiler.
So I think that compared to new technologies such as Kubernetes or other CNCF projects, OpenTelemetry has a long history before its beginning. So now, OpenTelemetry is a joint project among the many SaaS vendors and also observability-related open-source projects such as Prometheus, Jaeger, Zipkin. And then, in terms of the APM vendors, including your company like New Relic, Google, AWS, Splunk, or Microsoft, Datadog, Dynatrace, and Lightstep, all of those companies are getting together to make the best solution to instrument the application. And each of those companies have their own struggles, and then they share those struggles and efforts with the community. So all the spec includes those histories and now get into one.
And then they contacted some famous log collection projects such as the Fluent Bit and also others like Stanza as well as Syslog, I guess. And I didn't read the whole thread of the conversation around log collection. But now, they set the Stanza as the first implementation of OpenTelemetry logs. And in Stanza, the observIQ with Stanza is merged under the OpenTelemetry log repository, so that's the status. And then, they try to standardize the format of logs based on the Stanza format, such as what kind of information should be included in log.

And also, Morgan McLean now is the PM of Splunk. He was the main person who worked for OpenCensus, and then he tried to make OpenCensus and OpenTelemetry the first choice for the instrumentation for Google Cloud Trace and Cloud Monitoring. So that's the reason why I had to work with those libraries or the project. So Morgan McLean was really keen on communicating with the OpenTracing team because the objectives of instrumentation for trace were the same in the OpenTracing project and OpenCensus project. And he was really good at communicating with other people.
