Struggling to connect the dots - ADOT with Lambda using aws-otel-nodejs Lambda layer, not sure how to go from here to using custom instrumentation (e.g. instrumentation-pg, instrumentation-graphql, etc).

  1. aws-otel-js

    AWS Distro for OpenTelemetry JavaScript SDK

    I've also checked out this sample project / instrumentation, but comparing this to the description in the article I linked to above leaves me even more confused. For example, in the article linked above it says In order to send trace data to AWS X-Ray via the ADOT Collector, you must configure the X-Ray ID generator, X-Ray propagator, and collector gRPC exporter on the global tracer provider., but in the sample app there is no mention of / use of OTLPTraceExporter. So it's not clear to me if the article is missing something, or the sample code is missing something, etc, etc.

  3. opentelemetry-lambda

    Create your own Lambda Layer in each OTel language using this starter code. Add the Lambda Layer to your Lamdba Function to get tracing with OpenTelemetry.

    Sorry you're having trouble working with the ADOT Lambda Layers :(. Have you had a chance to open an issue on the GitHub repo for OTel Lambda or ADOT Lambda? You should add your expected vs your actual output!
