Availability of link support in AWS SDK
singhnix opened this issue · 1 comments
- Need feature 'link' [1] available for AWS SDK for Xray ? The link which is provided is for Open Telemetry. We are using AWS SDK in our code base and need the same support in AWS SDK as well.
Use Case:
Suppose traces are linked using the logic mentioned in [1] there will be a single trace with 3 branches for this use case. Is it possible to measure time taken for 3 different path within a trace?
Single trace is as given below
A - Topic x - B, C, D
From this single trace is it possible to find time taken for part of a trace?
Part 1 A - Topic x - B
Part 2 A - Topic x - C
Part 3 A - Topic x - D

Hi @singhnix,
Thanks for raising this request! Today the notion of links between traces is not supported in the X-Ray backend or via X-Ray SDKs. The specific use-case you mention of seeing the individual latencies of each path is an advanced use case of linking traces that the X-Ray backend will need to support.
We will keep this open as a feature request and update if there are any updates we can provide.
