Mix ApplicationInsights SDK with OpenTelemetry SDK for WebApplication and Backend API

In my application currently I use Application Insights SDK for monitoring, etc. My application currently is basically separated into two parts:

For both parts I currently use Application Insights, but I want to move my backend to use OpenTelemetry instead. The main goal would be to use OpenTelemetry for both parts of my application but unfortunately OpenTelemetry seems not be in a production ready state for browser applications according to the warning in docs.

So my approach would be to use OpenTelemetry in the backend as long as the browser part is not yet production ready.

But I wonder how well both SDKs would work together. For example in a distributed tracing scenario. Are the traces still grouped together in Application Insights in the Azure portal or does this not work properly?

Unfortunately my research has not found any good sources if this is a supported use case.
