• Migrate instrumentation and telemetry from New Relic to OpenTelemetry.
• Update YAML configs, environment vars, and deployment manifests per architecture standards.
• Run unit tests and validation to ensure telemetry is correctly generated and exported.
• Perform telemetry gap analysis and compare New Relic data with OTel outputs.
