I'm excited to share my recent blog post about my journey to delivering my first-ever public talk at the CTTT2024. It's a personal story of stepping out of my comfort zone, facing the challenges of public speaking, and the growth that came from it. If you've ever hesitated about public speaking, I hope my experience encourages you to take that leap. I would love to hear your thoughts and stories of overcoming similar barriers.

๐Ÿš€ OpenTelemetry Refined: Data Exporting Made Simple!

This is my second post, and as I'm finding my stride, I faced a bit of hesitation about publishing this particular piece. It delves into a very specific topic, without offering a broader context of the expansive OpenTelemetry landscape. While I might explore the wider landscape in future posts, for now, I wanted to share my thoughts on a subject close to my heart: the use of the OpenTelemetry Collector.

Discover how the OpenTelemetry Collector can simplify and enhance your telemetry approach:

โœ… Grasp how decoupling data exporting from apps changes the game.
โœ… Dive into local telemetry tools for tracing, metrics, and logging.

Despite its focused nature, I believe this insight can offer valuable perspectives for those keen on OpenTelemetry. let me know your thoughts!

Budapest public transport has a tram with see-through panels so people can peek into the mechanics of how the tram works. They even have signs explaining parts.

It's pretty fun. Every time I catch it I love to watch people marveling at it, kids and adults alike. ๐Ÿ˜„
