summary
Shows how to collect and export traces using OpenTelemetry and Fluent Bit so applications send spans to a backend without running an extra collector. Demonstrates an instrumented app with the OpenTelemetry SDK, a Fluent Bit pipeline that receives OTLP and forwards to common backends, and concrete config snippets — two small config keys and one code hook — that change how traces are exported. Live demo proves end-to-end export works with existing Fluent Bit installs and no extra agents.
