## OpenTelemetry Lambda Layers

The OpenTelemetry Lambda Layers provide the OpenTelemetry (OTel) code to export telemetry asynchronously from AWS Lambdas. It does this by embedding a stripped-down version of [OpenTelemetry Collector Contrib](https://github.com/open-telemetry/opentelemetry-collector-contrib) inside an [AWS Lambda Extension Layer](https://aws.amazon.com/blogs/compute/introducing-aws-lambda-extensions-in-preview/).
The OpenTelemetry Lambda Layers provide the OpenTelemetry (OTel) code to export telemetry asynchronously from AWS Lambda functions.

Some layers include the corresponding OTel language SDK for the Lambda. This allows Lambdas to use OpenTelemetry to send traces and metrics to any configured backend.

### Custom context propagation carrier extraction

Context can be propagated through various mechanisms (e.g. http headers (APIGW), message attributes (SQS), ...). In some cases, it may be required to pass a custom context propagation extractor in lambda through configuration, this feature allows this through Lambda instrumentation configuration.
