This specification defines a standard for representing and propagating a set of application-defined properties associated with a distributed request or workflow execution.| www.w3.org
Status: Stable Overview Cross-cutting concerns send their state to the next process using Propagators, which are defined as objects used to read and write context data to and from messages exchanged by the applications. Each concern creates a set of Propagators for every supported Propagator type. Propagators leverage the Context to inject and extract data for each cross-cutting concern, such as traces and Baggage. Propagation is usually implemented via a cooperation of library-specific reque...| OpenTelemetry
This specification defines standard HTTP headers and a value format to propagate context information that enables distributed tracing scenarios. The specification standardizes how context information is sent and modified between services. Context information uniquely identifies individual requests in a distributed system and also defines a means to add and propagate provider-specific context information.| www.w3.org
Specification documents (files) may explicitly define a “Status”, typically shown immediately after the document title. When present, the “Status” applies to the individual document only and not to the entire specification or any other documents. The following table describes what the statuses mean. Maturity levels The support guarantees and allowed changes are governed by the maturity level of the document. Maturity levels are defined in OTEP 0232 and follow the OpenTelemetry project...| OpenTelemetry
