OpenTelemetry made simple

Unsure who’s using your APIs and how? Wasting resources on lengthy troubleshooting processes? Cut through the complexity and harness the power of OpenTelemetry with Tyk. Enhance your API monitoring with end-to-end distributed tracing for faster troubleshooting and deeper insights.

Full access. No credit card required.

Seamless observability, in your hands

  • Powerful insights see further and deeper into your systems than ever before
  • Understand dependencies, pinpoint issues and optimize performance
  • Easily configure OTel in Tyk Gateway and integrate with other systems and tools
  • Customize traces to meet your monitoring needs
  • Identify innovation opportunities with next-level understanding of API usage

Handle all protocols

REST, GraphQL and event-driven async APIs all have their own observability requirements. Tyk’s support for OpenTelemetry means you can create traces that work for your particular needs, molding around your existing architecture.

Powerful flexibility

We’ve built in plenty of flexibility when it comes to logging, so you can obfuscate logs to avoid storing personally identifiable information (PII). After all, why deal with more compliance requirements than you need to?

Real-time alerts

Easily connect Tyk to your alerting systems to trigger emails, Slack messages and more as soon as something goes wrong. Jump on issues faster, pinpoint the problem with detailed traces and fix things in record time.

“Superior observability means you can take a proactive approach to root cause analysis, issue resolution, providing an enhanced user experience and optimizing your API operations. Say goodbye to bad API observability and hello to improved trace information and comprehensive support.”

Dive deeper into your data with Tyk and OTel

Logging without analytics is just raw data. Tyk is here to help you make sense of that data. Our API Gateway provides an entry point into your overall API stack (taking care of security and governance seamlessly along the way) and provides a starting point for your traces.

We make it easy to log as much or as little data as you need, in as much or as little detail as you need, so you can balance your observability requirements with your data storage costs. Tyk and OTel then feed your data-driven decision-making, letting you understand in depth who is using your APIs and how, so you can take an informed approach to resource allocation and product innovation.

So much more than observability
