OpenTelemetry™ is a collection of tools, APIs, and SDKs used to instrument, generate, collect, and export telemetry data (metrics, logs, and traces) to help you analyze software performance and behavior. 

Splunk AppDynamics provides an OpenTelemetry-compatible backend to ingest OpenTelemetry trace data using OpenTelemetry components. The ingested data is processed by the Cisco Cloud Observability backend and displayed in the UI. 

You can use the Cisco AppDynamics Distribution of OpenTelemetry Collector and/or the open-source OpenTelemetry Collector to collect and send data to Cisco Cloud Observability.
