+OpenTelemetry
+=============
+
+Faust can be instrumented with `OpenTelemetry`_ using the official
+`opentelemetry-instrumentation-faust`_ package:
+
+.. sourcecode:: console
+
+    $ pip install opentelemetry-instrumentation-faust
+
+The instrumentation uses the sensor API described on this page to
+record a producer span for every message sent to Kafka (injecting the
+span context into the message headers), and a consumer span for every
+event processed by an agent (continuing the trace from the incoming
+message headers).
+
+Instrument faust before creating the app:
+
+.. sourcecode:: python
+
+    import faust
+    from opentelemetry.instrumentation.faust import FaustInstrumentor
+
+    FaustInstrumentor().instrument()
+
+    app = faust.App('example', broker='kafka://localhost:9092')
