A new certification program from the Cloud Native Computing Foundation (CNCF) and Linux Foundation is aimed at validating the skills needed to utilize OpenTelemetry to gain visibility across distributed systems.
The OpenTelemetry Certified Associate (OTCA) certification is designed for application engineers, DevOps engineers, system reliability engineers, platform engineers, or IT professionals looking to increase their abilities to leverage telemetry data across distributed systems of cloud-native and microservices-based applications.
“OpenTelemetry is a transformative open-source observability project for empowering engineers to deeply analyze the intricate behaviors of distributed systems across many integrations,” said Chris Aniszczyk, CTO of the CNCF, in a statement. “The OTCA shows a developer can implement observability frameworks as well as understand the subtleties of performance and data flow, skills critical for proactive and precise problem-solving in cloud-native applications.”
