| 18 | +## Overview |
| 19 | + |
| 20 | +[`OpenTelemetry`] is a collection of tools, APIs, and SDKs used to instrument, |
| 21 | +generate, collect, and export telemetry data (metrics, logs, and traces) for |
| 22 | +analysis in order to understand your software's performance and behavior. |
| 23 | + |
| 24 | +This crate provides an exporter for sending trace and metric data in the OTLP |
| 25 | +format to the OpenTelemetry collector. The OpenTelemetry Collector offers a |
5 | 26 | vendor-agnostic implementation on how to receive, process, and export telemetry
|
6 | 27 | data. In addition, it removes the need to run, operate, and maintain multiple
|
7 | 28 | agents/collectors in order to support open-source telemetry data formats (e.g.
|
8 | 29 | Jaeger, Prometheus, etc.) sending to multiple open-source or commercial
|
9 | 30 | back-ends.
