ADOT for EKS add-ons announces advanced configuration for Collector deployment

AWS Distro for OpenTelemetry (ADOT) for Elastic Kubernetes Service (EKS) add-ons has introduced the ability to deploy an ADOT Collector during add-on installation. You can learn how to install ADOT for EKS add-ons on your EKS cluster by following the Getting Started with AWS Distro for OpenTelemetry using EKS Add-Ons guide.
