      Engineer: Steven Silvester

      • Continued work on PYTHON-5947- Add OpenTelemetry Operation. I split the PR into a 4 part stack with different tickets. The first (PYTHON-5947), is in final review. The rest of the stack adds Transaction spans (PYTHON-6035), unified test format (PYTHON-6036), and getMore support (PYTHON-5993).
      • Merged DRIVERS-3597 - Fix over-strict update assertion and missing initialData in OpenTelemetry spec tests.
      • Opened DRIVERS-3598 - Specify and test getMore span nesting in the OpenTelemetry spec - spec has been approved, waiting for Nabil to make a review pass next week.
      • Identified gaps in db.operation.name handling, ticket pending.
      • Plan for next two weeks:
        • File and complete a ticket to fill in gaps in db.operation.name handling.
        • Merge the full stack of PRs and close out the epic.

      This ticket was split from DRIVERS-719, please see that ticket for a detailed description.

      Questions and answers posed by the spike in PYTHON-5744:

      • Determine if the existing opentelemetry-instrumentation-pymongo package can be used as the underlying implementation for PyMongo's OpenTelemetry support in accordance with the spec.
        • Answer: it cannot. The spec requires different functionality than the package supports. Additionally, relying on the existing package would not allow useful consolidation of our telemetry APIs.
      • If opentelemetry-instrumentation-pymongo isn't suitable for implementing the spec, can we contribute to it upstream to make it suitable? Or are we better off creating our own internal solution?
        • Answer: We are better off creating our own internal solution.
      • The spec details specific OpenTelemetry span attributes to be recorded for each driver operation. What does that recording look like over the lifecycle of a PyMongo operation?
        • Answer: Spans are begun when an operation begins, and are completed when that operation finishes either successfully or with an error. Our proposed unified telemetry API would make this tracking simple.
      • Can we use our existing debug logging code to guide our OpenTelemetry support?
        • Answer: Yes. We plan to unify our telemetry APIs so that a single call is used to record for any of the enabled telemetries.
      • Does abstracting both debug logging and OpenTelemetry logging into a single, centralized design make sense? Both appear to gather similar information at similar points, reducing duplication would be ideal.
        • Answer: Yes.
