Enable OpenTelemetry in the Java Agent
The Java Agent (25.9 or later) supports two modes to send the OpenTelemetry signals:
-
Hybrid Mode:
-
Generates both Splunk AppDynamics APM data and OpenTelemetry traces using Splunk AppDynamics instrumentation rules.
-
See Supported Java Agent Frameworks for OpenTelemetry.
-
-
Dual Signal Mode
-
Generates Splunk AppDynamics APM data with OpenTelemetry signals using the OpenTelemetry Instrumentation for Java.
-
Consumes higher memory and CPU than the hybrid mode.
-
See Supported Frameworks.
-
-
OpenTelemetry Only Mode
- Generates OpenTelemetry signals using the OpenTelemetry Instrumentation for Java.
-
Does not generate Splunk AppDynamics APM data (it does not register with the Controller).
-
See Supported Frameworks.
