open-telemetry
Defines standards for generating consistent, accessible telemetry across a variety of domains
Many OpenTelemetry users run their applications in Kubernetes, where it is useful to use a collector processor like [k8sattributes](https://github.com/open-telemetry/opentelemetry-collector-contrib/tree/main/processor/k8sattributesprocessor) to enrich metrics, spans, or logs with k8s metadata like pod...
We have several areas/approver groups that are not mentioned in the codeowners: - database - messaging - feature-flags - tooling/policies -
**What are you trying to achieve?** Being able to track data center related information for anything running outside of a Cloud Provider. What did you expect to see? Semantic Conventions...
### Area(s) area:system ### Is your change request related to a problem? Please describe. Usage paging system metrics refer to the `system.paging.state` attribute but not the actual paging device. On...
### Area(s) area:service ### Is your change request related to a problem? Please describe. Instances of a service can be grouped into pools. For example, a service could be split...
We have `os.name`, `os.version`, type, etc attributes, but use `system` on metrics (`system.cpu.time`, `system.memory.usage`, etc). System metrics are effectively OS metrics: https://github.com/open-telemetry/semantic-conventions/blob/5eb37f706894718493af7a668971c651acb80812/docs/system/system-metrics.md?plain=1#L14-L15 We should consider renaming `system` to `os` (i.e....
I'm looking for some clarity on the Process Metrics. Specifically, why is "process.memory.usage" defined as "physical memory"? https://github.com/open-telemetry/semantic-conventions/blob/main/docs/system/process-metrics.md#metric-processmemoryusage It seems to me that "memory.usage" is vague, and it's not clear...
We have multiple layers of metrics: - runtime-specific (JVM, Go, etc) reporting CPU, memory, etc from the runtime perspective with attributes specific to the runtime - `process` which reports OS...
Resources have a "type" property (manually written, not part of yaml). E.g. https://github.com/open-telemetry/semantic-conventions/blob/4728f6374361ad82949eecdfccb67759f9f2535c/docs/resource/README.md?plain=1#L74-L78 It's not clear what it means - so we should either document it or remove it. _Originally...
### Area(s) area:k8s ### Is your change request related to a problem? Please describe. https://github.com/open-telemetry/opentelemetry-collector-contrib/issues/32941 I would like to be able to see a pod's Ready status in metrics. ###...
