3. OpenTelemetry yesterday Logs Metrics Traces “Three pillars”
4. MELT Logs Metrics Traces Events
5. Logs Metrics Traces Events OpenTelemetry tomorrow
 (TEMPL) Profiles

7. Metrics The original pillar Bad for troubleshooting Great for monitoring Operational data Dimensional Aggregatable Numerical
8. Logs The ancient pillar Hard to correlate Expensive Localized (easy sharding) Schematized Semi-structured Unstructured
9. Traces The “new cool kid on the block” pillar Root cause isolation, and more End-to-end monitoring Distributed (hard to bill for usage) Capture causality (DAG) Workflow centric Request-scoped logs
10. Events The misunderstood pillar Lower volume Strong identity High reliability requirement Shape: structured logs Change events Everything is an “event”
11. Profiles The geek pillar Aggregatable Large data volumes No instrumentation required Power user tool Lower usage Know when you see it
12. Exceptions The forgotten pillar Custom UI Special processing pipeline Aggregatable * Peek inside the frames Super-structured logs
13. Conclusion Don’t take it seriously There are more than “3 pillars” The term TEMPLE is awesome The boundaries are diffuse Pillars ≠ observability, just data
