By shifting from queue-size metrics to latency-based alerts, the team improved incident response. Key technical takeaways included using OpenTelemetry trace state for async duration tracking and wide events to uncover hidden architectural waste.</p> <i>By Mark Silvester</i> QCon London 2026 Observability OpenTelemetry DevOps Development Architecture & Design news Wed, 18 Mar 2026 07:00:00 GMT https://www.infoq.com/news/2026/03/queue-otel-observability/?utm_campaign=infoq_content&utm_source=infoq&utm_medium=feed&utm_term=OpenTelemetry Mark Silvester 2026-03-18T07:00:00Z /news/2026/03/queue-otel-observability/en
