summary
Deep dive on OpenTelemetry metrics covers the new metrics spec, language gaps and what actually works: Java has a working auto-agent, Node supports a simple -r/require startup trick, Go makes auto-instrumentation hard, and ecosystems now host about 150 instrumentations with ownership distributed to external maintainers. Collector advice is practical: run on Linux/ARM, build slim binaries via the collector as a framework approach, and use the contrib plugins or write one. Prometheus/OpenMetrics interop is supported and reviewers ask for more PR reviews and stable auto-instrumentation and semantic conventions.
