Running the OpenTelemetry community demo app in New Relic

What's this blog post about?

The New Relic fork of the OpenTelemetry Astronomy Shop Demo application has been updated with new features and improvements, including feature flags that simulate various scenarios, such as errors on specific calls, memory leaks, and high CPU load. The demo app can be deployed using Helm charts, and users can view the web store and load generator UIs once the app is deployed. The New Relic platform provides tools to troubleshoot issues with OpenTelemetry data, including the workloads and errors inbox feature. Additionally, a new Helm chart allows users to monitor their Kubernetes cluster with the OpenTelemetry Collector, providing enhanced monitoring capabilities for Kubernetes applications. The demo app also includes a roadmap for future development and maintenance, and users are encouraged to provide feedback and suggestions through the repository.
