Elastic has announced Elastic Distributions of OpenTelemetry (EDOT), a portfolio of OpenTelemetry (OTel) components designed to improve infrastructure and application monitoring in standard OTel distributions and functions. EDOT provides deeper insights and troubleshooting capabilities to users, including fixes outside of OTel release cycles and enterprise-grade support from Elastic.
“As organizations’ use of technology evolves, so do their needs for application and stack observability,” said Ken Exner, chief product officer at Elastic. “Building on our decision to adopt and recommend OTel for observing applications, Elastic is committed to contributing EDOT features or components upstream into the OTel community, fostering a collaborative environment and enhancing the overall OTel ecosystem.”
EDOT includes the following components: Elastic Distribution of OpenTelemetry Collector (EDOT Collector) and Elastic Distributions of Language Software Development Kits (SDKs), supporting Java, Python,
The Elastic Distributions of SDKs bring additional application performance monitoring (APM) capabilities from Elastic's APM agents into OTel language SDKs, while maintaining seamless integration with Elastic Observability. Elastic will release OTel versions of its APM agents and continue to add additional language SDKs mirroring OTel.
EDOT users can still use native OTel components in conjunction with Elastic. EDOT is available now in tech preview.
