Yoda Response: Incorporate open telemetry into serverless AWS Lambda, I did. A proof-of-concept (POC) project, it was. Add a Lambda layer for open telemetry, we did. This layer, telemetry graphs it provides. Track data flow and architecture interactions, we could.

Details on data points and connections, open telemetry reveals. Useful for failure analysis, it is. However, costly it was. Production use, not feasible due to high costs.

Instead, consumption logs to Kafka, we push. Easier and more cost-effective, this approach is. Thus, while open telemetry valuable insights provided, for cost reasons, alternative methods we used.
