Tracing API | OpenTelemetry
Status: Stable, except where otherwise specified The Tracing API consists of these main components: TracerProvider is the entry point of the API. It provides access to Tracers. Tracer is responsible for creating Spans. Span is the API to trace an operation. Data types While languages and platforms have different ways of representing data, this section defines some generic requirements for this API. Time OpenTelemetry can operate on time values up to nanosecond (ns) precision. The representation of those values is language specific.
