# OpenTelemetry Setup

<a id="open-telemetry-setup" />

Set up OpenTelemetry configurations to gain visibility into the operations and performance of the NeMo Platform.

## Configuration

The NeMo Platform uses OpenTelemetry to collect telemetry data from the platform and services. It leverages common OpenTelemetry SDK [configuration options](https://opentelemetry.io/docs/languages/sdk-configuration/) to configure the platform deployment.

## Helm Configuration

The NeMo Platform Helm Chart `values.yaml` exposes OpenTelemetry SDK options to configure the platform deployment. For example, to enable OpenTelemetry for the platform:

```yaml
telemetry:
 OTEL_TRACES_EXPORTER: "otlp"
 OTEL_METRICS_EXPORTER: "otlp"
 OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_ENDPOINT: "opentelemetry-collector.monitoring:4317"
 OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_INSECURE: true
```

For a complete list of the default values, refer to [Helm Configuration](/documentation/self-managed-deployment/helm/helm-reference).
