New Relic at KubeCon
Visit New Relic's booth #A3 at KubeCon 2024, where you'll see live demos of our Kubernetes monitoring solution which automates APM agent deployment without requiring any developer code changes in your application, enabling faster onboarding and simple management across dev and ops teams.
New Relic instantly correlates the performance across apps and Kubernetes data on a single UI, so you can quickly identify and fix performance issues. Additionally, our industry-leading OpenTelemetry support allows you to seamlessly onboard your clusters with the OTel collector.

Session Title: When Things Go Sideways: Troubleshooting the OTel Operator
The OpenTelemetry (OTel) Operator is a great tool that helps make your life a little easier by managing OTel for you in your Kubernetes cluster, by: Managing the deployment of the OpenTelemetry Collector Managing the configuration of a fleet of OpenTelemetry Collectors via OpAMP integration Injecting and configuring auto-instrumentation into your pods But what happens when THINGS. DON’T. WORK??
In this talk, Adriana and Reese will cover:
- An overview of the OTel Operator
- Common installation issues
- Common auto-instrumentation issues
- Common OTel Collector deployment issues
- * …and how to tackle them all
Attendees will walk away from this session with a better understanding of how they can leverage the Operator, and be empowered to use it with confidence.

Session Title: Simplifying OpenTelemetry with Configuration
Learning how to use a new tool, and using it well enough to get value out of it quickly is really important. Configuring OpenTelemetry SDKs and instrumentation is essential, but programmatic configuration is cumbersome and environment variables are limited. OpenTelemetry file configuration is the community’s next generation config tool. Building on the original flattened environment variable based scheme, file configuration introduces tooling for configuring SDKs and instrumentation which accommodates the complexities of how people use OpenTelemetry in practice.
Come learn about:
- What the OpenTelemetry Configuration Schema is and why it exists.
- How language agnostic file configuration provides OpenTelemetry adopters the tools needed to support complex scenarios.
- How various components in OpenTelemetry have adopted the configuration schema.
- Using a single configuration to configure OpenTelemetry SDKs in multiple languages and the Collector.

New Relic's K8s Plushy Keychain

The Kubernetes logo is inspired by the Greek myth of the “Kubernetes,” which means “helmsman” or “pilot.” In the myth, the Kubernetes were a group of 50 sea nymphs who were the daughters of Nereus, the Old Man of the Sea, and Doris, a sea nymph. The Kubernetes were known for their ability to predict the future and their role as protectors of sailors and ships.
