Their data correlation is awful compared to competitors like Honeycomb, Dynatrace and Instana. What we want to see is something that cuts through all the noisy data and show the users what anomalies are occurring. We shouldn't be sifti

Could you point me to docs, architecture notes or code where they explicitly say auto-instrumentation is the ONLY approach to using OTel? AFAIK both auto-instrumentation and manual instrumentation are equally supported - https://

But OpenTelemetry never claimed to be an auto-instrumentation only library, you can very well just manually instrument your application with the metrics you want and export it your self managed prometheus + log infrastructure. In fact, OTel

Rakuten's Cloud business (aka Symphony) is made for Telecom Companies wanting to switch away from traditional RAN model to OpenRAN. It's not really a direct competitor to AWS or GCP (although AWS, GCP and Azure seems to be making

The market seems to be big enough for multiple providers. AST will definitely be providing services to Rakuten in Japan and thus many more clients through their Symphony offerings

That's just the API layer for configuration, you still need a proxy to route. Nginx will still stay relevant

In normal high-tech countries the domestic software megacorps match or exceed FAANG salaries. Spotify & Booking in Europe, RazorPay & Flipkart in India, Gojek in SEA all match or exceed FAANG salaries but not in Japan

Japan's tech job market is not similar to other countries though. I can bet you that $JAPANESE_MEGACORP you speak of is well known for paying below market rates. The salary bands in Japan are the following- gaishikei (FAANGs) > Japa

Negligible. Cloudflare is tiny compared to AWS, which itself is a fraction of total computer infrastructure. On-prem is still big, reason why cloud companies keep showing massive growth.
