The BPF instrumentation is quite cool! I wonder if uprobes have a performance impact. Does it roughly compare to a single syscall?

Really nice ! I was looking into implementing tracing for a few projects I'm being onboarded on, and it seems to solve the "ask the devs nicely to implement OpenTelemetry are at least merge my commits" part.

My "gut instinct" would be to export that to Jaeger, but I'm open to suggestions as to better alternatives. We're on GCP so it might be an opportunity to try Google Cloud Trace as well.

I am very amused by your choice of name, as Odigos is to land what Kubernetes is to sea.

in greek it means Driver, the one who drives lol Edit: just saw your username, im pretty sure you already knew xD

Haha yes, and Kubernetes is the guy who drives ships.

Amazing project. Is everything open source? Are you planning anything for the big enterprise who wants to pay for the service?

Are there any plans to branch out past Kubernetes? I'd be very interested in Odigos but I have separated myself from Kubernetes and am all in on Nomad. I've been looking at how I want to handle tracing and telemetry and this seems it'd be a great fit except for that minor detail

Definitely. Nomad is probably the first environment we are going to support after Kubernetes

Thank you! Yes, we are working on adding enterprise features.

This is awesome! Request tracing is basically the fundamental building block to observability in a distributed system. Doing it automatically is a huge win! Congrats on the launch and I look forward to learning more!

Thank you for the feedback! We believe a lot of innovation can happen with distributed traces, and Odigos is just the beginning

Are there available positions for hire in the company? This sounds really interesting!

Not yet, but hopefully soon. Thank you for the feedback!
