Metric support now available in AWS Distro for OpenTelemetry
Today, we are announcing the general availability of AWS Distro for OpenTelemetry (ADOT) for metrics, a secure, production-ready, AWS-supported distribution of the OpenTelemetry project. With this launch, customers can use OpenTelemetry APIs and SDKs in Java, .Net, and JavaScript to collect and send metrics to Amazon CloudWatch, Amazon Managed Service for Prometheus, and other monitoring destinations supported by the OpenTelemetry Protocol (OTLP). Part of the Cloud Native Computing Foundation (CNCF), OpenTelemetry provides open source APIs, libraries, and agents to collect distributed traces and metrics for application and infrastructure monitoring. With ADOT, you can instrument your applications just once to send metrics and traces to multiple monitoring solutions and use auto-instrumentation agents to collect traces and metrics without changing your code. Use AWS Distro for OpenTelemetry to instrument your applications running on Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2), Amazon Elastic Container Service (ECS), and Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service (EKS).

For your observability needs, you can choose Amazon CloudWatch, Amazon Managed Service for Prometheus, or one of the AWS partner destinations. You can configure and deploy the latest version of the AWS Distro for OpenTelemetry for container services and Amazon EC2 by using AWS CloudFormation templates, the AWS Command Line Interface, Kubectl commands, or the ADOT EKS add-on. Developers can use the several supported receivers such as Prometheus as well as OpenTelemetry SDKs to collect or instrument their applications for collecting correlated metrics and traces.
