Instrumentation support selector #2744
Comments
This approach has one considerable downside over the annotation. The annotation changes pod spec, therefore it triggers re-deployment which is needed by the OTEL operator to inject the auto-instrumentation (the operator uses pod mutating webhook) |
Yeah, you're right. However, we hope that all the configurations associated with OTel can be handed over to Operator, and if the annotation are used, we also need to maintain them ourselves during the |

@crossoverJie we discussed this issue at the SIG (and realized we should have probably done this prior to your PR) and had a few follow up questions. I saw the link you shared for how skywalking handles this, and at first glanced it seemed very similar, however, there's a key difference. Skywalking seems to be a java-only auto-instrumentation solution whereas opentelemetry can inject instrumentation for multiple languages. That results in what we agreed to be a confusing experience for users where a cluster admin needs to set a piece of configuration AND a tenant in the cluster needs to set configuration as well.
I was imagining it would be more beneficial for both personas if the cluster admin could specify a set of rules that specify a selector for applications to target for injection and specify which languages (and optionally container names) to inject. Let me know your thoughts here, and if you'd like to meet more to discuss the above I'd be happy to chat. |
Thank you for following up on this issue.
Can you explain the relationship between cluster admin and tenants here?
