I am Shivajee, final-year Computer Science and Engineering student from India, currently diving deep into observability and cloud-native infrastructure. I am also exploring metric standardization, collector architectures, and the limitations of existing instrumentation practices.
Through this talk I will share my learning journey and insights into making Prometheus and OpenTelemetry interoperable — especially from a beginner’s yet deeply curious lens.

Shivajee's Session on Interesting Prometheus use-cases
As a student building infrastructure projects on Ubuntu 24.04, I wanted to understand how my system behaved during active development — coding, compiling, running containers, and even doom-scrolling terminals. This lightning talk walks through how I turned my dev machine into an observability playground using Prometheus and Node Exporter.
I’ll cover how I set up Prometheus to scrape system metrics, wrote simple custom exporters to track coding activity, and visualized resource usage spikes during Go builds and Docker runs. Along the way, I’ll share what surprised me — like how different editors behave, or how idle-looking terminals eat memory.
This is a lightweight but practical use-case showing that we don’t need a large-scale prod environment to explore Prometheus. Just our laptop, curiosity, and a few lines of config can reveal a lot. Hopefully, it inspires others to start experimenting — even from the command line.
Shivajee's Session on Advanced Exploration of Observability Interoperability
The future of observability lies in seamless data flow, and the convergence of Prometheus with OpenTelemetry is at its core. In this session, I will dive into the often-complex world of advanced Prometheus and OpenTelemetry interoperability. Going beyond basic setup, I will dissect crucial challenges and patterns for robust data exchange.
Attendees will gain insights into:
Navigating the nuances of metric data model reconciliation between Prometheus and OTel.
Advanced OpenTelemetry Collector configurations for complex Prometheus ingestion and transformation.
Strategies for optimizing performance and managing cardinality in hybrid monitoring environments.
Real-world scenarios and lessons learned from a hands-on exploration, aimed at maximizing the value of both powerful ecosystems.
