When it comes to GraphQL, a LOT can go wrong! Thankfully, OpenTelemetry can help. Here’s how. 

Introducing any new technology into the architecture landscape usually means added complexity and new challenges – along with a general sense of overwhelm. GraphQL is no exception. Thankfully, OpenTelemetry can do much to help solve the problems of GraphQL. It can help from a developer and engineering perspective, as well as on the operations side of things.  

In this blog, we’ll look at:

• How OpenTelemetry (OTel) can address GraphQL challenges, benefitting developers and operations teams.
• How OTel aids effective GraphQL error detection. 
• OTel’s role in identifying and addressing performance issues in GraphQL, enabling you to optimise performance.
