The OTLP exporter in this repository is still at version 0.3. To bring it forward to v0.5 will require two new supports to be in place.

  1. LastValue aggregation is required: being added in Use LastValue by default for ValueObserver instruments #1165.
  2. Histogram aggregation is required: no open PR

Histogram aggregation is required as an alternative to Summary data points. Since Summary has no current expression in OTLP v0.5, and at the specification level we are leaning in the direction of Histogram or Histogram-like-Sketch as the default aggregation for ValueRecorder instruments, moving this repository to v0.5 with Histogram implemented for ValueRecorder is the closest we can get to the specification.

After LastValue and Histogram support are added at the current protocol version, the exporter can be upgraded to v0.5.

Is this a duplicate of #1123?

Yes, except I've put in more detail about how I think it should be sequenced.

I've updated the description of #1123 to include the information included here and going to close this to resolve the duplicity.
