## EDOT Python
# EDOT Python

The [Elastic Distribution of OpenTelemetry Python (EDOT Python)](https://github.com/elastic/elastic-otel-python) is a customized version of [OpenTelemetry Python](https://opentelemetry.io/docs/languages/python).
EDOT Python makes it easier to get started using OpenTelemetry in your Python applications through strictly OpenTelemetry native means, while also providing a smooth and rich out of the box experience with [Elastic Observability](https://www.elastic.co/observability). It's an explicit goal of this distribution **to avoid introducing proprietary concepts** in addition to those defined by the wider OpenTelemetry community. For any additional features introduced we aim for contributing them back to the upstream OpenTelemetry Python project.

* Preconfigured collection of tracing and metrics signals, applying some opinionated defaults, such as which sources are collected by default.

**Ready to try out EDOT Python?** Follow the step-by-step instructions in [Setup](./setup/index).

## Compatibility matrix

Data can be exported in the OpenTelemetry-native [OTLP (OpenTelemetry protocol)](https://opentelemetry.io/docs/specs/otlp) format via gRPC (default)
and HTTP to self-managed, Elastic Cloud Hosted or Elastic Cloud Serverless observability backends.

For the best (and supported) experience, we recommend exporting data from EDOT Python via the [EDOT Collector](https://elastic.github.io/opentelemetry/edot-collector/index).

| EDOT Python | Elastic Stack 8.x | Elastic Stack 9.x | Serverless |
| ----------- | ----------------- | ----------------- | ---------- |
| 1.0.0 | 8.18.0+¹ | 9.0.0+¹ | ✅ ² |

***1.** Via the EDOT Collector.*

***2.** Via the OTel-native ingest endpoint.*
