am using an Open Telemtery JAVA SDK to publish some metrics an OTEL sink like Dynatrace. I am sending gauges, updown counters etc. to dynatrace and see that UpDown Counters are successuflly pushed, but the counters are not. Could you kindly help me understand where I could be going wrong?
The code that I am using OTLP SDK Meter Provider
@Bean
public SdkMeterProvider sdkMeterProvider(){
return SdkMeterProvider.builder()
.registerMetricReader(
PeriodicMetricReader.builder(
OtlpHttpMetricExporter.builder()
.setEndpoint(otlpApiUrlPrefix+"/v2/otlp/v1/metrics")
.addHeader("Authorization", "Api-Token "+otlpApiToken).build())
.setInterval(15, TimeUnit.SECONDS) /** determines the frequency of publishing metrics **/
.build())
.build();
}
Initializing Updown Counter with callback (This works successfully)
meter
.upDownCounterBuilder("otlp.demo.updown.counter.with.callback")
.setDescription("Demo updown counter with callback")
.setUnit("boxes")
.buildWithCallback(result -> result.record(currentvalue, attributes));
Initializing Counter with Callback
meter
.counterBuilder("otlp.demo.counter.with.callback")
.setDescription("Counter with callback")
.setUnit("count")
.buildWithCallback(result -> result.record(currentvalue, attributes));
This does not get transmitted to the downstream OTEL Sink (Dyantrace)
Initializing Counter without Callback
longCounterWithoutCallback = meter
.counterBuilder("otlp.demo.counter.without.callback")
.setDescription("Counter without callback")
.setUnit("count")
.build();
I am incrementing this counter as follows:
/** Random increment/ decrement of the counter. Does not control the frequency of metrics export **/
@Scheduled(cron = "${otlp.metrics.cron}")
public void processCounter(){
currentvalue = currentvalue + (-5L + (long) (Math.random() * (20L)));
logger.info("Successfully modified counter value {}", currentvalue);
longCounterWithoutCallback.add(1L); // Only increment the counter
}
I am trying to use this as an example https://github.com/open-telemetry/opentelemetry-java-examples/blob/main/metrics/src/main/java/io/ope...
