A Distributed Tracing API for Swift.
This is a collection of Swift libraries enabling the instrumentation of server side applications using tools such as tracers. Our goal is to provide a common foundation that allows to freely choose how to instrument systems with minimal changes to your actual code.
While Swift Distributed Tracing allows building all kinds of instruments, which can co-exist in applications transparently, its primary use is instrumenting multi-threaded and distributed systems with Distributed Traces.
We provide a number of guides aimed at getting your started with tracing your systems and have prepared them from three "angles":
- Application developers who create server-side applications
- please refer to the doc:TraceYourApplication guide.
- Library/Framework developers who provide building blocks to create these applications
- please refer to the doc:InstrumentYourLibrary guide.
- Instrument developers who provide tools to collect distributed metadata about your application
- please refer to the doc:ImplementATracer guide.
