What does Instana do with OpenTelemetry spans once they are ingested correctly?
Select an answer to reveal the explanation.
Short Explanation
You want one picture. Instana maps OpenTelemetry spans into its own service model, so OpenTelemetry-instrumented components appear alongside agent-monitored ones in service and dependency views.
Full Explanation
Ingested OpenTelemetry spans are interpreted as services and calls in the same model as agent-collected data, so a request can be followed across both kinds of instrumentation. A separate area that must be queried independently is wrong because a separate silo would defeat the purpose of ingesting the data. Converting them into infrastructure metrics and discarding span detail is wrong because span detail is what makes tracing useful and is retained. Forwarding them unchanged to an external tracing backend is wrong because Instana ingests the data rather than acting as a pass-through. For the exam, describe OpenTelemetry ingestion as feeding the same service model.
