Hello community, could you help me with the following question? The support team wasn't very helpful.
Let me put this in context: my organization is deployed in Kubernetes with Istio, and I use it as a proxy for NodeJS functionality.
By default, we have an ActiveGate in the Kubernetes environment that deploys OneAgent to all namespaces, and we do all the tracing that way.
Our current version of Istio is 1.21, and we want to migrate to 1.25, hence Envoy 1.30+. At this point, we found that OpenTracing no longer supports automatic discovery of technologies, and we have to migrate to OpenTelemetry for Istio according to this documentation:
https://docs.dynatrace.com/docs/ingest-from/opentelemetry/integrations/istio#expand--migration-from-...
My question is, if I'm going to ingest telemetry directly in Istio this way, is there a way that would conflict with my current Kubernetes direct telemetry and trace discovery features, or can they coexist?
