Odigos is an open-source observability control plane. The project’s two main goals are:

  1. Automatic instrumentation - Odigos automatically instruments your applications and produces distributed traces and metrics without any code changes.
  2. Collector management - Odigos automatically deploys and scales collectors according to application traffic. No need to spend time deploying and configuring collectors.

​
Adopt OpenTelemetry in minutes

Odigos currently supports all the popular managed and open source destinations. By producing data in the OpenTelemetry format, Odigos can be used with any observability tool that supports OTLP and allow you to easily switch to another vendor in the future.

​
Who is Odigos for?

  • Application developers - focus on writing code. Odigos leverages the power of OpenTelemetry and eBPF to automatically instrument applications. Be prepared for the next production incident with best-in-class observability data.

  • Platform engineers - Odigos automatically deploys and scales collectors according to the traffic of applications. No need to waste time deploying and configuring collectors.

The name Odigos originates from Greek, meaning guide.
