OpenTelemetry is a set of APIs, SDKs, tooling, and integrations that enable the capture and management of telemetry data from your services and applications. You can use OpenTelemetry to collect application performance data in Elastic APM, whether you’re running serverless, self-managed, or hybrid deployments.

Elastic offers several distributions of OpenTelemetry. Each [Elastic Distribution of OpenTelemetry](opentelemetry://reference/index.md) is a customized version of an OpenTelemetry language SDK and the OpenTelemetry Collector, ready to send data to the [Managed OTLP endpoint](opentelemetry://reference/motlp.md), APM Server, or directly to {{es}}.
