I m trying to come up with some easy low hanging fruit delivery flows that we can really quickly drop instrumentation on customer VMs

Pranay · Answer

have you checked this <https github com open telemetry opentelemetry cpp contrib tree main instrumentation otel webserver module>

What about on the SQL side

Pranay · Answer

For SQL monitoring you can use this receiver you have to add a receiver in SigNoz opentelemetry collector similar to the instructions here

Mac Wynkoop · Answer

Oh great So if I need to instrument any of the applications that have a corresponding receiver I can just deploy out these receivers and configure them to talk to the customer apps

Mac Wynkoop · Answer

And then of course configure the SigNoz side too

Pranay · Answer

you don t need to deploy any receiver you just need to add that receiver block in the opentelemetry collector config file as shown here <https signoz io docs userguide send metrics enable a specific metric receiver>
