Without OneAgent, sending OpenTracing traces to Dynatrace

[sasin]

Hi All,

Currently, I'm working with a legacy system that instrument the traces using OpenTracing. Without using oneAgent is there any way to publish that traces to Dynatrace?

Regards,

Hi @sasin , sure is there: https://www.dynatrace.com/support/help/extend-dynatrace/opentelemetry#tabgroup--opentelemetry--instr...

You will send the data to Dynatrace using rest API (/api/v2/otlp/v1/traces).

Hi @dannemca,

Thank you for the quick response. But the thing is my system(WSO2 API manager) instruments the traces using OpenTracing. I have tried your solution and it is not working without OneAgent.

Oh my bad then, I misunderstood, sorry.

 OpenTracing is now deprecated and OpenTelemetry is the new standard. I would highly recommend migrating to OpenTelemetry: https://opentelemetry.io/docs/migration/opentracing/

An OpenTracing to OTEL shim is available.

Hi Sasin,

you can use https://github.com/tbrandl-dynatrace/wso2-apimanager-dynatrace for doing OpenTracing with Dynatrace on WSO2.

Best regards,
