Summary

Earlier, we explored how using Open Telemetry can provide observability into our application and the applications it depends on. We discussed how to set up telemetry for our application using the two most popular backends: Jaeger and Prometheus, which are both written in Go. We also showed how to use GitHub actions to automate our code deployments and how to add custom actions using Go. Now, in this section, we looked at the architecture for interacting with a service. We built an interaction layer using Slack to do operations such as filtering traces, getting the currently deployed version, and showing alerts.
