OpenInference is a set of conventions and plugins that is complimentary to [OpenTelemetry](https://opentelemetry.io/) to enable tracing of machine AI applications. OpenInference is natively supported by [arize-phoenix](https://github.com/Arize-ai/phoenix), but can be used with any OpenTelemetry-compatible backend as well.
