> The algorithm that I've seen (I think @jmacd was one of the author) FYI for the record this wasn't my doing. This "inflationary" sampling technique predated me on that...
I am expecting us to use the W3C trace context "random" flag to address this issue: https://github.com/w3c/trace-context/pull/474 @dyladan can you provide guidance?
@dyladan Thank you. I am pleased to see that we are nearly ready to adopt the random bit for w3c traceparent. Those familiar with the current tracestate-based proposal for probability...
We discussed this in the 9/22 Sampling SIG. The action items were loosely discussed and will continue in the next SIG (10/6). My opinions, roughly, are: 1. Assuming W3C gives...
I do not believe anyone requires 56-bits of sampling precision. I'm interested in what others think is a good value, maybe 16 or 20 bits will do.
This was discussed by me @oertl @PeterF778 @kalyanaj and @kentquirk in the Sampling SIG today. Notes: The W3C `random` flag is anticipated to go ahead, but we also expect it...
I support a size limit of 255 bytes. May we settle on the ANSI X3.4-1986 (i.e., "US-ASCII") character set for encoding? Can we say the same for Span and Metric...
Choosing a non-7-bit character encoding will support internationalization, but it introduces a lot of complications for SDKs to be "Correct". For example, it becomes incorrect to truncate strings on an...
