So you want to build an Incident Response stack using OpenTelemetry?

The talk will start with defining Incident Response Management and its principles. Next, we'll discuss how users can build an efficient incident response stack in a myriad of open source tooling. We'll split this into 3 sections: 1) What are good signals to collect from an application that will help diagnose production issues? 2) What query patterns should be allowed by a telemetry database and how can we use them efficiently? How can I use these query patterns defined by telemetry databases to build an incident response stack? We'll answer these questions through a deep dive on OpenTelemetry.
