Elastic Distribution of OpenTelemetry Python
The Elastic Distribution of OpenTelemetry Python (EDOT Python) is a customized version of OpenTelemetry Python. EDOT Python makes it easier to get started using OpenTelemetry in your Python applications through strictly OpenTelemetry native means, while also providing a smooth and rich out of the box experience with Elastic Observability. It's an explicit goal of this distribution to introduce no new concepts in addition to those defined by the wider OpenTelemetry community.
With EDOT Python you have access to all the features of the OpenTelemetry Python agent plus:
- Access to improvements and bug fixes contributed by the Elastic team before the changes are available upstream in OpenTelemetry repositories.
- Access to optional features that can enhance OpenTelemetry data that is being sent to Elastic.
- Elastic-specific processors that ensure optimal compatibility when exporting OpenTelemetry signal data to an Elastic backend like an Elastic Observability deployment.
- Preconfigured collection of tracing and metrics signals, applying some opinionated defaults, such as which sources are collected by default.
