Use "OpAMP: Open Agent Management Protocol" for Agent-Configuration
For OTel there is a OpAMProtocol specification. We should check if we could use this for Agent-configuration. eg. Config-Server <--> inspect-IT Agent It is based on WebSocket or POST http/json Open Agent Management Protocol
While Open Agent Management Protocol is certainly very interesting, there are things to consider:
- To me the specification of that protocol reads as if it is targeted towards telemetry collectors e.g. open telemetry collector not for a JVM agent.
- We could nevertheless switch to it for inspectit-ocelot-agent, but that would mean quiet some work.
- The spec covers the aspects of transporting data not the transported data itself. It's what HTTP is for HTML
