Let me know what the community thinks of the same or if more information is required and I can help contributing
As you mentioned the opentelemetry plugin in grpc-java
provides only metrics. The grpc instrumentation here also provides traces so replacing it with what grpc-java
has is not an option at the moment. Furthermore the code in grpc-java
does not follow open telemetry semantic conventions. What could be considered is an instrumentation that automatically enables the metrics when opentelemetry plugin for grpc-java
is present (I assume that by default user needs to manually enable it).
@laurit yes that is what I was intending to
we are planning to collaborate with the gRPC team when we kick off the RPC semantic convention stability effort later this year, it may be worth waiting to see what comes out of that effort
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Currently custom library is being used for tracking grpc requests, grpc-java in their latest release have added support for OpenTelemetry metrics. It would be simple and provide more information and if we use the new grpc-opentelemetry library instead.
Describe the solution you'd like
We should use the grpc-opentelemetry setup provided by grpc-java
https://github.com/grpc/grpc-java/tree/master/opentelemetry
