TraceGuard: OTEL Process Disambiguation & Health Shield

TraceGuard eliminates the need for manual tagging or centralization when OpenTelemetry cannot distinguish between multiple processes of the same app. It auto‑assigns unique identifiers, centralizes config, and monitors each process, isolating failures so a single bad component never disrupts the entire telemetry pipeline.

Comment on: The current state of OpenTelemetry

Because again, OTEL does not like more than one process that thinks it’s the “same” app, so you have to tag or centralize to disambiguate.And the thing I hate the most about OpenTelemetry: it has One Bad Apple Syndrome.
