Datadog SDKs provide an implementation of the OpenTelemetry API for traces, metrics, and logs. This means you can maintain vendor-neutral instrumentation of your services, while still taking advantage of Datadog’s native implementation, features, and products.

The telemetry produced by your running code can be processed, analyzed, and monitored alongside Datadog’s native telemetry, allowing you to take advantage of Datadog’s unified platform and products like Continuous Profiler, Data Streams Monitoring, App and API Protection, and Live Processes.

Note: You can also send your OpenTelemetry API instrumented traces to Datadog using the OTel Collector.

By instrumenting your code with OpenTelemetry APIs, your code:

• Remains free of vendor-specific API calls.
• Does not depend on Datadog SDKs at compile time (only runtime).
