v1.0.0 — Initial Public Release

v1.0.0 — Initial Public Release

OTel Studio generates realistic, correlated OpenTelemetry data — traces, logs, and metrics — against any OTel-compatible backend. Docker-deployable in under a minute, no code required.

Highlights

• 25 realistic service topologies across Web App, Infrastructure, APM, Cloud Native, and Chaos/Stress categories — real parent-child span chains, not random noise
• Correlated signals — logs share trace IDs with the spans that produced them
• Multi-endpoint fanout — send to two or more backends simultaneously, each with independent TLS/mTLS
• Geo/IP simulation — realistic regional IP ranges or safe RFC 5737 test ranges
• Synthetic PII — opt-in, per-scenario, for testing redaction/DLP pipelines (RFC 2606 reserved domains only, never real data)
• Advanced scenario controls — custom attributes, span duration overrides, weighted status codes
• Real system data — optional real log file tailing and Docker container log/metric collection alongside simulated traffic
• One-click stack presets for 12 popular backends: Grafana Alloy, OpenTelemetry Collector, Elastic APM, Honeycomb, Jaeger, SigNoz, OpenObserve, Datadog, New Relic, Dynatrace, Lightstep
• Sequential mode, anomaly injection, and time-limited quota runs for structured load testing
• Icon-rail UI — Dashboard, Scenarios, Real Data, Endpoints, and Stats as dedicated full-width pages
