Hello, @Abhishekkr3003 . The environment variable/configuration option you're introducing here doesn't appear to be one of the official configuration options (see here for the full list of official env vars): https:/open-telemetry/opentelemetry-specification/blob/main/specification/configuration/sdk-environment-variables.md

In addition, I believe there is a moratorium currently on introducing new environment variables until the configuration specification is complete.

If we are going to introduce a new environment variable here, we would absolutely have to make it an "experimental" env var, and have the word "experimental" in the name of the config option. See here for an example: https:/open-telemetry/opentelemetry-java/blob/main/exporters/common/src/main/java/io/opentelemetry/exporter/internal/ExporterBuilderUtil.java#L44

However, I would strongly recommend that you bring this up at the next Java SIG meeting to see if there is an appetite to add new configuration options like this.

@Abhishekkr3003 I added a test which confirms that base2 exponential histograms are in fact configured by requesting the protobuf binary format from the prometheus server, parsing it to equivalent java bindings, and asserting against its string represetnation.

Thanks, @jack-berg , for continuing it, I have not been getting time to contribute here lately.
