Day 8 of 30 Days of OTel! (Disclaimer: I washed my hands before recording this video 😄) API ≠ SDK - The OpenTelemetry API is what you use in your code. It’s how your app creates telemetry: logs, metrics, traces. - The OpenTelemetry SDK decides what happens to that telemetry. Where it’s sent. How it’s processed. Which backend receives it. You don’t rewrite your application code to change backends. You keep the same API calls and update the SDK configuration instead. That separation is what makes OpenTelemetry portable and avoids vendor lock-in.
