OpenTelemetry

Component Category

Telemetry and instrumentation

Component Description

OpenTelemetry is the standard telemetry layer used by CoreAI services to emit traces, metrics, and GenAI-related signals in a consistent way.

Why It Is Used

It makes service instrumentation more uniform and easier to connect to the broader observability stack used by the platform. For GenAI observability, CoreAI uses OpenTelemetry instrumentation first and exports AI workflow spans to MLflow by default.
