Splunk Distribution of OpenTelemetry Python

The Splunk distribution of OpenTelemetry Python provides multiple installable packages that automatically instrument your Python application to capture and report distributed traces to Splunk APM. Instrumentation works by patching supported libraries at runtime with an OpenTelemetry-compatible tracer to capture and export trace spans.

This distribution comes with the following defaults:

• OTLP gRPC exporter configured to send spans to a locally running Splunk OpenTelemetry Collector (http://localhost:4317).
• Unlimited default limits for configuration options to support full-fidelity traces.
• Inclusion of system metrics

Requirements

This Splunk Distribution of OpenTelemetry requires Python 3.9 or later. Supported libraries are listed here.
