Here's how we do it: We normalize events into the OTel standard to create a unified playing field for all our data, regardless of origin. Datable supports a wide range of formats and protocols, like Syslog, Json, and Fluent. And we also support open source vendor protocols like the New Relic wire protocol and the Datadog wire protocol. By normalizing all our data, we can ensure consistency even as data comes from various sources.
