Open Observability

🕓 3:15 pm - 4:00 pm📍 River Room 1 (Lv 3)
Our applications are becoming more complicated and our traditional logging and monitoring approaches are just not enough any more. Open Telemetry (OTEL) opens the door to the next generation of application observability tooling. In this talk Jake will take you through where our traditional approaches start to fall down, and why so many companies are joining together to work on OTEL. You will leave with a solid understanding of the benefits of OTEL in your applications and how to get the most out of it.

Patient Zero
At first, when we heard that DDD Perth was held in a stadium, we thought there was no way that could be true. Turns out it is. Well done, Perth! Once we learned the truth of the matter, we just had to come and check it out ourselves and share our zombie sock love. Yeah, we love zombies if the name didn't give it away. And we love our zombie sock merch. That, plus, our co-CEO Paul loves to hear himself talk and our other one, Demelza, loves a stage.

MakerX
DDD Perth embodies everything we believe in at MakerX - making technology accessible, fostering diversity, and building high-performing teams. These aren't just ideals we talk about; they're the proven foundation of successful technology companies.The conference itself is a masterclass in bringing people together. With 1,600 passionate technologists gathering in one place, we're witnessing real-time ecosystem building - where today's attendees become tomorrow's co-founders, where nervous first-time speakers evolve into industry leaders, and where casual conversations spark the collaborations that define our tech future. At MakerX, we know that helping our partners succeed requires more than writing code. It's about weaving together culture, connections, and capabilities - transforming research breakthroughs and bold ideas into sustainable businesses that create real impact. That's exactly what DDD Perth facilitates at scale and we're proud to be onboard to support the event for another year.

It's such a privilege to be able to run this conference and DDD Perth would love to acknowledge the traditional custodians of the land in which DDD is created, presented, and shared, the Whadjuk people of the Noongar Nation and their connections to land, sea and community. We pay our respect to their Elders past, present and emerging, and extend that respect to all Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples today.
