No. A Telemetry Drops completion certificate is separate from CNCF's OpenTelemetry Certified Associate (OTCA) credential. Our practice exam is independent preparation and does not award certification. ### Which topics does the course cover? The curriculum covers instrumentation, signals, the data model, API, SDK, Collector pipelines, the Operator, architecture, migration, and observability culture. See the course modules on this page for the full lesson list. ### Where can I read the terms and cancellation policy? Review our terms of use for the applicable purchase and cancellation conditions.

Juraci is one of the minds behind OpenTelemetry, very detailed, he breaks down point by point. Being one of the creators, he can really go deep. Expectations successfully exceeded!" ![Willian Saavedra](https://telemetrydrops.com/testimonials/willian.webp) Willian Saavedra Site Reliability Engineer , Itaú "I was able to go deeper and ask questions, it exceeded my expectations, I had several insights from what Juraci brought." ![Mateus Santos](https://telemetrydrops.com/testimonials/mateus.webp) Mateus Santos CTO , Vericode "I already had experience with OpenTelemetry, more specific to the Collector, but it was interesting to be able to deepen my knowledge in the instrumentation part. I'm leaving with much more knowledge than I expected." ![Rafael Gumiero](https://telemetrydrops.com/testimonials/rafael.webp) Rafael Gumiero Principal Engineer , PicPay ## Course modules Content organized progressively to facilitate your learning ### 1 The Basics in 3 Lessons 1 Instrumenting an Application 2 Visualizing Telemetry 3 Placing a Collector in the Middle ### 2 Fundamentals 1 Problems We Solve 2 Audiences 3 Project Philosophy 4 Instrumentation 5 Telemetry 6 Observability 7 Monitoring 8 OpenTelemetry 9 Bonus: Observability 2.0 ### 3 Observability Signals 1 Logs 2 Metrics 3 Traces 4 Profiles 5 Events ### 4 OTel in Practice 1 What Are We Going to Observe? 2 What Are Our Pain Points? 3 Adding OTel SDK 4 Instrumenting Our Initialization 5 Observing HTTP Calls 6 Propagating Context Manually 7 New Spans, or Events? 8 Understanding Normal Latency Between Services ### 5 Data Model 1 Introduction 2 Attributes 3 Scope 4 Resources 5 Context 6 Baggage 7 Traces 8 Metrics 9 Logs 10 Profiles 11 Bonus: Entities ### 6 OpenTelemetry API 1 Events 2 Audience 3 Tracing 4 Metrics 5 Profiles 6 Log Bridge ### 7 OpenTelemetry SDK 1 SDKs in Detail 2 The Basics to Survive 3 Resources 4 Distributed Tracing 5 Metrics 6 Logs 7 Using a Configuration File ### 8 OpenTelemetry Collector 1 Introduction 2 Component Types 3 Getting the Collector 4 Configuration 5 Agents vs. Gateways vs. Collectors 6 Monitoring Collectors 7 OTTL - Introduction 8 OTTL - Context 9 OTTL - Advanced Cases 10 Resilience Techniques - Queues 11 Resilience Techniques - WAL 12 Resilience Techniques - Messaging 13 Security - TLS 14 Security - Authentication 15 Building Your Collector 16 Connectors: Span Metrics 17 Scaling the Collector ### 9 Extending the Collector 1 Introduction 2 Extensions 3 Receivers 4 Processors 5 Exporters 6 Connectors ### 10 OpenTelemetry Operator 1 Introduction 2 Operators for Kubernetes 3 CRD - Collector 4 Collector Operation Modes 5 Installation 6 CRD - Auto-Instrumentation 7 Target Allocator ### 11 OpAMP 1 OpAMP ### 12 Architecture 1 Architecture - Instrumentation 2 Architecture - Pipeline ### 13 AI 1 A Glimpse of the Future 2 AI for Observability 3 Observability for AI ### 14 Migration 1 Migration ### 15 Observability Culture 1 Observability Culture ## Ready to start your OpenTelemetry journey?
