OpenTelemetry Output

OpenTelemetry Output Destination Plugin

OpenTelemetry Output is a destination plugin that allows you to send telemetry data to a wide range of data sources, such as observability platforms, analytics tools, and logging systems. With this plugin, you can easily integrate your Calyptia Core pipeline with OpenTelemetry-enabled data sources, such as Jaeger, Zipkin, AWS X-Ray, and others, to send data such as traces, metrics, and logs. This plugin is designed to be flexible and customizable, allowing you to configure it to suit your specific use case and data requirements.
Configuration Parameters
