Lambda Manual Instrumentation

For languages not covered in the Lambda auto-instrumentation document, the community does not have a standalone instrumentation layer.

Users will need to follow the generic instrumentation guidance for their chosen language and add the Collector Lambda layer to submit their data.

Add the ARN of the OTel Collector Lambda layer

See the Collector Lambda layer guidance to add the layer to your application and configure the Collector. We recommend you add this first.

Instrument the Lambda with OTel

Review the language instrumentation guidance on how to manually instrument your application.

Publish your Lambda

Publish a new version of your Lambda to deploy the new changes and instrumentation.
