Features

Detailed guides for Telegen’s observability features.

Overview

Telegen provides comprehensive observability through:

• eBPF-based instrumentation - Zero-code, kernel-level collection

• Automatic discovery - Cloud, Kubernetes, runtime detection

• Full-stack correlation - Traces, metrics, logs, profiles linked automatically

• Unified pipeline - Single V3 pipeline with WAL queues, failover, circuit breakers
