+# OpenFeature.DependencyInjection
+
+> **⚠️ DEPRECATED**: This library is now deprecated. The OpenTelemetry Dependency Injection library has been moved to the OpenFeature Hosting integration in version 2.8.0.
+
+OpenFeature is an open standard for feature flag management, created to support a robust feature flag ecosystem using cloud native technologies. OpenFeature will provide a unified API and SDK, and a developer-first, cloud-native implementation, with extensibility for open source and commercial offerings.
+
+## Migration Guide
+
+If you are using `OpenFeature.DependencyInjection`, you should migrate to the `OpenFeature.Hosting` package. The hosting package provides the same functionality but in one package.
+
+### 1. Update dependencies
+
+Remove this package:
+
+```xml
+<PackageReference Include="OpenFeature.DependencyInjection" Version="..." />
+```
+
+Update or install the latest `OpenFeature.Hosting` package:
+
+```xml
+<PackageReference Include="OpenFeature.Hosting" Version="2.8.0" />
+```
+
+### 2. Update your `Program.cs`
+
+Remove the `AddHostedFeatureLifecycle` method call.
+
+#### Before
+
+```csharp
+builder.Services.AddOpenFeature(featureBuilder =>
+{
+    featureBuilder
+        .AddHostedFeatureLifecycle();
+
+    // Omit for code brevity
+});
+```
+
+#### After
+
+```csharp
+builder.Services.AddOpenFeature(featureBuilder =>
+{
+    // Omit for code brevity
+});
+```
