SAP Updated C_KYMD_01 Exam Questions and Answers by bruno

SAP BTP, Kyma runtime provides a vendor-neutral integration point for traces, metrics, and logs, mainly using the OpenTelemetry Protocol (OTLP). For this option, the system you want to connect must support OTLP natively. The observability tools that support OTLP are Loki and Jaeger. Loki is a horizontally-scalable, highly-available, multi-tenant log aggregation system inspired by Prometheus. Jaeger is a distributed tracing system that monitors and troubleshoots transactions in complex distributed systems. Kiali and Grafana are not part of the observability architecture of SAP BTP, Kyma runtime, but they can be installed separately if needed. References: From Observability to Telemetry – a strategy shift in SAP BTP, Kyma Runtime, Accessing the built-in observability tools of Kyma runtime, SAP Help Portal - SAP Online Help

The SAP BTP service operator on SAP BTP, Kyma runtime uses the SAP Service Manager to consume services on SAP BTP. The SAP Service Manager is a component that provides a unified way of provisioning, accessing, and managing services from different providers and platforms. The SAP Service Manager implements the Open Service Broker API (OSB API) to communicate with service brokers and expose their services to applications. The SAP BTP service operator on SAP BTP, Kyma runtime leverages the SAP Service Manager to create and manage service instances and bindings for SAP BTP services in the Kyma cluster. The SAP BTP service operator also synchronizes the service catalog from the SAP Service Manager to the Kyma Service Catalog, so that users can discover and consume SAP BTP services through the Kyma Console or the Kubernetes API. References: https://learning.sap.com/learning-journey/deliver-side-by-side-extensibility-based-on-sap-btp-kyma-runtime/defining-sap-btp-service-management-in-the-kyma-environment_a2d02cae-3e38-4297-83e6-8f388f609889

 Kubernetes is an open source platform for managing containerized workloads and services, that facilitates both declarative configuration and automation1. Kubernetes enables the operation of an elastic web server framework for cloud applications, as well as the orchestration of microservices, batch processing, machine learning, and more2. Kubernetes is not a tool for governance of applications, management of virtual machines, or registration of services, although it can integrate with other tools or frameworks that provide these functionalities. References: 1(https://kubernetes.io/docs/concepts/overview/),  2(https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kubernetes)
