Three Terraform Mistakes, and How to Avoid Them

  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.

  

In my last blog post, I talked about how Ana Margarita Medina and I used Terraform to show off Observability-Landscape-as-Code in practice, leveraging the OpenTelemetry Demo App to do so. The Demo App showcases instrumentation of Traces and Metrics of different services written in different languages using OpenTelemetry (OTel). Our Terraform code did the following:

• unified-observability-k8s-kubecon

  2 2 10.0 HCL

  Unified Observability for Kubernetes at KubeCon NA '22

  

NOTE: If you want to follow along to see the full Terraform source code, you can check it out here. Even though the source code is specific to the Observability-Landscape-as-Code use case, the main Terraform concepts in this blog post can be ported over to other scenarios.

  OpenTelemetry Helm Charts

  

After creating a Kubernetes cluster, we needed to create a Kubernetes resource before we could apply the Helm chart to install the OpenTelemetry demo app. The Demo App’s Helm Chart deploys an OpenTelemetry Collector. We wanted to configure the Collector to send OTel data to Lightstep. To do so, you need to add a Lightstep Access Token, which is stored as a Kubernetes secret.
