Chapter 4. Configuring and deploying the OpenTelemetry instrumentation injection
OpenTelemetry instrumentation injection is a Technology Preview feature only. Technology Preview features are not supported with Red Hat production service level agreements (SLAs) and might not be functionally complete. Red Hat does not recommend using them in production. These features provide early access to upcoming product features, enabling customers to test functionality and provide feedback during the development process.
For more information about the support scope of Red Hat Technology Preview features, see Technology Preview Features Support Scope.
The Red Hat build of OpenTelemetry Operator uses a custom resource definition (CRD) file that defines the configuration of the instrumentation.
4.1. OpenTelemetry instrumentation configuration options
The Red Hat build of OpenTelemetry can inject and configure the OpenTelemetry auto-instrumentation libraries into your workloads. Currently, the project supports injection of the instrumentation libraries from Go, Java, Node.js, Python, .NET, and the Apache HTTP Server (
httpdAuto-instrumentation in OpenTelemetry refers to the capability where the framework automatically instruments an application without manual code changes. This enables developers and administrators to get observability into their applications with minimal effort and changes to the existing codebase.
The Red Hat build of OpenTelemetry Operator only supports the injection mechanism of the instrumentation libraries but does not support instrumentation libraries or upstream images. Customers can build their own instrumentation images or use community images.

The OpenTelemetry SDK variables in your pod are configurable by using the following annotation:
instrumentation.opentelemetry.io/inject-sdk: "true"Note that all the annotations accept the following values:
true-
Injects the
Instrumentationresource from the namespace. false- Does not inject any instrumentation.
instrumentation-name- The name of the instrumentation resource to inject from the current namespace.
other-namespace/instrumentation-name- The name of the instrumentation resource to inject from another namespace.
4.1.2.8. Multi-container pods
The instrumentation is run on the first container that is available by default according to the pod specification. In some cases, you can also specify target containers for injection.
Pod annotation
instrumentation.opentelemetry.io/container-names: "<container_1>,<container_2>"The Go auto-instrumentation does not support multi-container auto-instrumentation injection.
