This weekend, I decided to update my old Macbook Pro 13 inch from late 2011, with 125GB SSD and 8GB RAM. It's a machine I've taken on trips around the world and back in the day ran many sessions, workshops, and demos sharing all that developer goodness. Last time we checked, this was installed using Fedora 37, so how about an update to Fedora 41? Below are the steps and adjustments needed to get Fedora 41 working on these laptops in no time.

Monitoring system behavior is essential for ensuring long-term effectiveness. However, managing an end-to-end observability stack can feel like sailing stormy seas — without a clear plan, you risk blowing off course into system complexities. By integrating observability as a first-class citizen within your platform engineering practices, you can simplify this challenge and stay on track in the ever-evolving cloud-native landscape.

Are you ready to start your journey on the road to collecting telemetry data from your applications? Great observability begins with great instrumentation! In this series, you'll explore how to adopt OpenTelemetry (OTel) and how to instrument an application to collect tracing telemetry. You'll learn how to leverage out-of-the-box automatic instrumentation tools and understand when it's necessary to explore more advanced manual instrumentation for your applications.
