Timeline (last 90 days)
backstage-plugin-ai-agents is an open-source plugin for Spotify Backstage, used to centrally manage and observe AI Agent clusters within a self-hosted Backstage instance
The core design of this plugin relies on OpenTelemetry (OTEL) signals as the data collection standard
The first available observability backend for this plugin is currently Langfuse
The project is still in an early stage; the OTEL collection layer is in place, but currently only Langfuse is available as a backend option
Given OTEL's open nature, expanding the plugin to other observability backends is an anticipated direction in the future
This plugin is suitable for engineering teams that are already using Backstage and have begun deploying AI Agents at scale; for organizations that have not adopted Backstage, the cost of introducing it solely for this purpose is relatively high
