# OpenTelemetry
Adopt vendor-neutral telemetry with consistent instrumentation across services.
## When to Use This Skill
- Debugging latency across microservices
- Standardizing observability data model and naming
- Sending telemetry to Prometheus, Grafana, Datadog, or OTLP backends
- Building SLO dashboards with trace-to-log correlation
- Instrumenting Python or Node.js applications with tracing and metrics
- Setting up auto-instrumentation for existing services without code changes
## Prerequisites
