How to Implement OpenTelemetry in Next.js

OpenTelemetry is an open-source observability framework designed to instrument, generate, collect, and export telemetry data, including traces, metrics, and logs. It is vendor-agnostic, allowing developers to send data to multiple backend services like Last9, Prometheus, Datadog, or Jaeger without vendor lock-in. For Next.js applications, OpenTelemetry is particularly useful due to the framework’s hybrid rendering approach.

How to make your AI-as-a-Service more resilient

When you think about “AI reliability,” what comes to mind? If you’re like most people, you’re probably thinking of generative AI model accuracy, like responses from ChatGPT, Stable Diffusion, and Sora.
