The End of Manual Instrumentation: Scaling Observability with OTel OBI & Coralogix

Coralogix OBI (OpenTelemetry eBPF-based Instrumentation) enables zero-code observability by capturing traces and metrics directly from the Linux kernel, eliminating the need for manual SDK instrumentation or code changes. Deployed as a Kubernetes DaemonSet, it automatically discovers services, monitors encrypted traffic, and supports a wide range of languages including Java, Go, Python, and Rust. OBI adheres to OpenTelemetry standards, delivering enterprise-grade APM features like SLO tracking, service maps, and log-trace correlation — even for legacy or closed-source systems that were previously unmonitorable.
