With Dash0, we have found an OpenTelemetry-native solution that provides the flexibility we need. With the support of the open standard OpenTelemetry, we are able to handle public resources responsibly.

Find the Right Trace—Fast.

Dash0 makes searching high-cardinality spans effortless. Filter and pinpoint failures or bottlenecks instantly—whether using your keyboard or a simple click. Let Triage analyze millions of traces in seconds—Dash0 finds the needle in the haystack for you.

Filter fast, find faster!
Filtering

Filter fast, find faster!

Easily filter using the OpenTelemetry semantic conventions, with built-in context-aware guidance. Drill down by key or value across resource and signal metadata., ensuring you find what you need in no time.

Triage

Why guess, if Dash0 can tell you?

Quickly pinpoint the root cause of performance issues with automated telemetry comparison for logs and traces. Our analytics engine detects key attributes behind bottlenecks and anomalies by analyzing timeframes, baselines, and incident patterns.

Built for developers and platform engineers, this feature accelerates root cause analysis, reducing MTTR and keeping your systems running smoothly.

Instantly navigate between logs, traces, and metrics thanks to Dash's resource centricity and OpenTelemetry's trace-context correlation. One click, out of the box.

The Last Distributed Tracing You Will Ever Set Up

Vendor-specific libraries and SDKs are a liability. Adopt OpenTelemetry, the de-facto open-source standard for collecting observability data, and free yourself from vendor lock-in.

OpenTelemetry Collector

The last observability agent you will ever need

Virtually all OpenTelemetry setups are centered around the OpenTelemetry Collector: it allows you to collect, transform, sample and forward telemetry to and from an incredible variety of sources and destinations. Every OpenTelemetry Collector out there can be made to talk to Dash0 with a couple lines of configuration. You can even send the same telemetry to multiple destinations, so you can compare apples with apples between Dash0 and other observability tools! By the way, do you know otelbin.io? It’s an open-source tool by Dash0 to help you configure your OpenTelemetry Collectors!
