Microsoft is investing in OpenTelemetry for the following reasons:
20
20
21
-
- It's vendor-neutral and provides consistent APIs/SDKs across languages.
22
-
- Over time, we believe OpenTelemetry will enable Azure Monitor customers to observe applications written in languages beyond our [supported languages](../app/app-insights-overview.md#supported-languages).
23
-
- It expands the types of data you can collect through a rich set of [instrumentation libraries](https://opentelemetry.io/docs/concepts/components/#instrumentation-libraries).
24
-
- OpenTelemetry Software Development Kits (SDKs) tend to be more performant at scale than their predecessors, the Application Insights SDKs.
25
-
- OpenTelemetry aligns with Microsoft's strategy to [embrace open source](https://opensource.microsoft.com/).

### What is the Azure Monitor OpenTelemetry Distro?

You can think of it as a thin wrapper that bundles together all the OpenTelemetry components for a firstclass experience on Azure. This wrapper is also called a [distribution](https://opentelemetry.io/docs/concepts/distributions/) in OpenTelemetry.

There are several advantages to using the Azure Monitor OpenTelemetry Distro over native OpenTelemetry from the community:

-
- Reduces enablement effort
40
-
- Supported by Microsoft
41
-
- Brings in Azure-specific features such as:

-
- Sampling compatible with classic Application Insights SDKs
-[Offline Storage and Automatic Retries](../app/opentelemetry-configuration.md#offline-storage-and-automatic-retries)
45
-
-[Statsbeat](../app/statsbeat.md)
46
-
-[Application Insights Standard Metrics](../app/standard-metrics.md)
47
-
- Detect resource metadata to autopopulate [Cloud Role Name](../app/java-standalone-config.md#cloud-role-name) and [Cloud Role Instance](../app/java-standalone-config.md#cloud-role-instance) on various Azure environments

In the spirit of OpenTelemetry, we designed the distro to be open and extensible. For example, you can add:

52
-
- An OpenTelemetry Protocol (OTLP) exporter and send to a second destination simultaneously
53
-
- Other instrumentation libraries not included in the distro

Because the Distro provides an [OpenTelemetry distribution](https://opentelemetry.io/docs/concepts/distributions/#what-is-a-distribution), the Distro supports anything supported by OpenTelemetry. For example, you can add more telemetry processors, exporters, or instrumentation libraries, if OpenTelemetry supports them.
