OpenCensus Instana Trace Exporter

OpenCensus Instana Trace Exporter allows the user to send collected traces with OpenCensus Node.js to Instana.

Instana is a distributed tracing system. Instana provides AI Powered Application and Infrastructure Monitoring, allowing you to deliver Faster With Confidence, and automatic Analysis and Optimization.

This project is still at an early stage of development. It's subject to change.

Installation

Install OpenCensus Instana Exporter with:

npm install @opencensus/nodejs
npm install @opencensus/exporter-instana

Usage

To use Instana as your exporter, first ensure that you have an Instana agent running on your system and reporting to your environment. The Instana OpenCensus exporter directly communicates with the Instana agent in order to transmit data to Instana.

const tracing = require('@opencensus/nodejs');
const instana = require('@opencensus/exporter-instana');

tracing.start({
  exporter: new instana.InstanaTraceExporter()
});
