Abstract

Have you heard about HTTP Archive (HAR) files and wondered how you could leverage this data for deeper insights into your web applications?

Imagine analyzing your page load request data as OpenTelemetry traces in your favorite observability backend. This talk will explore the lessons learned from transforming HAR into an OpenTelemetry trace and streaming it to Jaeger. Learn how to convert HAR data into spans following OpenTelemetry semantic conventions.
