 5Package otel provides global access to the OpenTelemetry API. The subpackages of
 6the otel package provide an implementation of the OpenTelemetry API.
 7
 8The provided API is used to instrument code and measure data about that code's
 9performance and operation. The measured data, by default, is not processed or
10transmitted anywhere. An implementation of the OpenTelemetry SDK, like the
11default SDK implementation (go.opentelemetry.io/otel/sdk), and associated
12exporters are used to process and transport this data.
