I would think anyone trying to put an OTEL source on an embedded device (IoT) was out of his goddamned mind. OTEL assumes data sources have ample hardware and particularly memory. It periodically summarizes all traffic since startup instead of streaming things as they happen.


i assume you're talking about metrics. you should be able to switch aggregation mode to delta


Have you gotten that to work? I tried several times, got everything from zero stats to high CPU.

It might work now, it definitely did not as recently as about six months ago. At some point I had to get other things done this year besides OTEL.


we do otlp (delta) -> otel collector collector -> other process that does temporal aggregation
