# Using AWS Distro for OpenTelemetry as a collector
<a name="AMP-ingest-with-adot"></a>

This section describes how to configure the AWS Distro for OpenTelemetry (ADOT) Collector to scrape from a Prometheus-instrumented application, and send the metrics to Amazon Managed Service for Prometheus. For more information about the ADOT Collector, see [AWS Distro for OpenTelemetry](https://aws.amazon.com/otel/).

The following topics describe three different ways to set up ADOT as a collector for your metrics, based on whether your metrics are coming from Amazon EKS, Amazon ECS, or an Amazon EC2 instance.
