Is there any good documentation around the airbyte otel metrics available? And does anyone have a nice dashboard in grafana to share?

Yes, Airbyte provides documentation on how to collect metrics using Open Telemetry (otel). You can set this up by changing the
METRIC_CLIENT
to
otel
in your
.env
file. Additionally, you need to configure the
OTEL_COLLECTOR_ENDPOINT
to tell Airbyte where to send metrics RPC to. You can find more details in the [Airbyte documentation](https://docs.airbyte.com/operator-guides/collecting-metrics). As for a Grafana dashboard, there was a conversation in the Airbyte Slack channel where a user mentioned querying the Airbyte database to get the list of jobs and their status in Grafana. However, they noted that job logs do not log enough information about the name of the connection, suggesting that querying Prometheus might be more useful. Unfortunately, no specific Grafana dashboard was shared in the conversation. You can check out the conversation [here](https://airbytehq.slack.com/archives/C021JANJ6TY/p1665974639427089). For a more comprehensive list of metrics that Airbyte sends, you can visit this [GitHub link](https://github.com/airbytehq/airbyte-platform/blob/main/airbyte-metrics/metrics-lib/src/main/java/io/airbyte/metrics/lib/OssMetricsRegistry.java) as mentioned in a [Slack conversation](https://airbytehq.slack.com/archives/C021JANJ6TY/p1678303133772099).
