Odigos is an open-source observability control plane. Odigos leverages the power of OpenTelemetry and eBPF to automatically instrument applications.

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”.

​
Goals

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

Odigos achieves it’s goals by deploying a set of components that work together to collect, process, and export telemetry data.

​
Who is Odigos for?

  • Software Developers
  • Platform Engineers
  • IT Professionals
  • Anyone comfortable with command-line interfaces and basic cloud infrastructure

Odigos is designed to be easy to use and deploy. It is a great tool for anyone who wants to get started with observability without the hassle of setting up and managing collectors.
