OpenTelemetry, both directions: the monitor speaks OTLP in and out
The monitor now speaks OpenTelemetry in both directions: it re-emits its whole Prometheus surface and its events over OTLP, and its /v1/traces endpoint ingests OTLP spans from any instrumented service. That gives BetterDB four positions in your pipeline - feed your collector, be one, produce spans, or consume them and add the one thing a pure trace tool can't: the live database state behind the span. It fits wherever your stack has an OTLP-shaped socket open.
