OTel Collector | v0.157.0

OTel Collector v0.157.0 released on 22-07-2026


OTel Collector v0.157.0 is out now. It formalises the version bump, refreshes core Collector dependencies and pins the contrib eBPF dependency to v0.21.0, so operators of eBPF integrations and anyone tracking component updates should take note.

See the v0.157.0 contrib and core changelogs on GitHub for per-component changelogs, upgrade notes and any breaking changes before you upgrade.

What’s in this release

  • Version bump to 0.157.0 (commit 145e73e) marking the packaged release.
  • Dependency refresh: core/opentelemetry-collector components updated as part of routine maintenance (commit 2fb4059).
  • Contrib change: eBPF dependency pinned to v0.21.0 (commit 8999a89).

Upgrade notes

  • Review the v0.157.0 core and contrib changelogs on GitHub for component-level upgrade notes and any breaking changes before updating.
  • If you run eBPF-related receivers or processors, verify compatibility with the pinned v0.21.0 eBPF dependency and test in a staging environment; if needed, roll back to your previous release tag until testing is complete.
