This year of .NET has a lot of amazing things for client application developers. Let’s review the highlights and set your expectations for the year ahead.

I was made aware of OpenTelemetry a while ago by a blog series Jimmy Bogard and put it in my favourites to read at a later date.

A while later I saw a blog post by Rehan Saeed which gives an introduction on what OpenTelemetry is and how it works and the concepts behind it and is definitely worth a read.
