SouJava Talks: OpenTelemetry & Continuous Feedback - Know your Java code at runtime by Roni Dover

About the talk:

There are many tools and libraries that deploy Java code out into production, but how can we bring data and information back into our code?

Continuous Feedback is a new dev practice that provides developers with exceedingly fast feedback loops and code-change analysis to help navigate complex codebases and gain more confidence in your PRs.

Using OpenTelemetry, as well as open-source tools and platforms, developers can leverage specific metrics, logs, and traces to get immediate feedback as they develop, spot code smells and common issues, and later follow their code at scale as it gets released into the wild. With the right process, it can be useful as a design tool as well.

In this session, we'll explore practical techniques, tools, code examples, and practices that can be combined to create a Continuous Feedback pipeline.
