open-telemetry/opentelemetry-java
2,358View on GitHubThe OpenTelemetry Java SDK is the official language-specific implementation of the OpenTelemetry standard, providing a comprehensive and standardized interface for instrumenting Java applications to collect traces, metrics, and logs, with built-in exporter support and automatic instrumentation capabilities.
JavaMonitoring - open-telemetry/opentelemetry-php
open-telemetry/opentelemetry-php
OpenTelemetry PHP is a standard-compliant observability framework designed to instrument applications for the collection and export of telemetry data. It provides a comprehensive suite of tools for capturing traces, metrics, and logs, enabling developers to monitor operational behavior and system performance in real time. The project distinguishes itself through an interface-driven plugin architecture that allows for the modular configuration of exporters, processors, and samplers. To maintain performance in production environments, it supports the use of native binary extensions for data ser

alibaba/opentelemetry-go-auto-instrumentation
OpenTelemetry Compile-Time Instrumentation for Golang
This is an OpenTelemetry-based automatic instrumentation library for Go, providing compile-time instrumentation for metrics, traces, and logs, and covering all key features of an observability instrumentation SDK for the Go ecosystem.
GoDevelopment ToolsDistributed Systems - tokio-rs/tracing
tokio-rs/tracing
6,750View on GitHubThis project is a structured tracing framework for Rust that serves as an async-aware instrumentation library and telemetry data collector. It provides a structured logging facade and the tools necessary to record, filter, and route event-based diagnostic data from both standard applications and embedded systems. The framework distinguishes itself through a core implementation that supports bare-metal and no-standard-library environments without requiring a dynamic memory allocator. It specifically handles the complexities of asynchronous workflows by propagating diagnostic contexts across fu
tokio-rs/tracing is a Rust-native structured tracing framework that provides spans, events, automatic instrumentation macros, and log correlation, making it a genuine observability instrumentation library, though it does not include built-in OpenTelemetry integration or metric collection.
RustAsynchronous Tracing - census-instrumentation/opencensus-go
census-instrumentation/opencensus-go
2,042View on GitHubOpenCensus-go is an observability instrumentation library designed to capture and export telemetry data from distributed systems. It functions as a framework for application performance monitoring and distributed request tracing, allowing developers to track system health, latency, and the progression of requests across service boundaries. The project distinguishes itself through a modular architecture that decouples data collection from storage. By utilizing a pluggable exporter interface, it enables the transmission of metrics and trace data to a variety of external monitoring and analysis
OpenCensus-Go is a stats and distributed tracing framework for Go, making it a valid observability instrumentation library, but it lacks built-in OpenTelemetry integration and log correlation, so it only partially meets the required feature set.
