-Package otel provides an implementation of the OpenTelemetry API.
-
-This package is currently in a pre-GA phase. Backwards incompatible changes
-may be introduced in subsequent minor version releases as we work to track the
-evolving OpenTelemetry specification and user feedback.
-
-The provided API is used to instrument code and measure data about that code's
-performance and operation. The measured data, by default, is not processed or
-transmitted anywhere. An implementation of the OpenTelemetry SDK, like the
-default SDK implementation (go.opentelemetry.io/otel/sdk), and associated
-exporters are used to process and transport this data.
-
-Tracing
-
-To participate in distributed traces a Span needs to be created for the
-operation being performed as part of a traced workflow. It its simplest form:
-
-	var tracer otel.Tracer
-
-	func init() {
-		tracer = global.Tracer("instrumentation/package/name")
-	}
-
-	func operation(ctx context.Context) {
-		var span trace.Span
-		ctx, span = tracer.Start(ctx, "operation")
-		defer span.End()
-		// ...
-	}
-
-A Tracer is unique to the instrumentation and is used to create Spans.
-Instrumentation should be designed to accept a TracerProvider from which it
-can create its own unique Tracer. Alternatively, the registered global
-TracerProvider from the go.opentelemetry.io/otel/global package can be used as
-a default.
-
-	const (
-		name    = "instrumentation/package/name"
-		version = "0.1.0"
-	)
-
-	type Instrumentation struct {
-		tracer otel.Tracer
-	}
-
-	func NewInstrumentation(tp otel.TracerProvider) *Instrumentation {
-		if tp == nil {
-			tp := global.TracerProvider()
-		}
-		return &Instrumentation{
-			tracer: tp.Tracer(name, otel.WithTracerVersion(version)),
-		}
-	}
-
-	func operation(ctx context.Context, inst *Instrumentation) {
-		var span trace.Span
-		ctx, span = inst.tracer.Start(ctx, "operation")
-		defer span.End()
-		// ...
-	}
-
-Metric Measurements
-
-Measurements can be made about an operation being performed or the state of a
-system in general. These measurements can be crucial to the reliable operation
-of code and provide valuable insights about the inner workings of a system.
-
-Measurements are made using instruments provided by this package. The type of
-instrument used will depend on the type of measurement being made and of what
-part of a system is being measured.
-
-Instruments are categorized as Synchronous or Asynchronous and independently
-as Adding or Grouping. Synchronous instruments are called by the user with a
-Context. Asynchronous instruments are called by the SDK during collection.
-Additive instruments are semantically intended for capturing a sum. Grouping
-instruments are intended for capturing a distribution.
-
-Additive instruments may be monotonic, in which case they are non-decreasing
-and naturally define a rate.
-
-The synchronous instrument names are:
-
-  Counter:           additive, monotonic
-  UpDownCounter:     additive
-  ValueRecorder:     grouping
-
-and the asynchronous instruments are:
-
-  SumObserver:       additive, monotonic
-  UpDownSumObserver: additive
-  ValueObserver:     grouping
-
-All instruments are provided with support for either float64 or int64 input
-values.
-
-An instrument is created using a Meter. Additionally, a Meter is used to
-record batches of synchronous measurements or asynchronous observations. A
-Meter is obtained using a MeterProvider. A Meter, like a Tracer, is unique to
-the instrumentation it instruments and must be named and versioned when
-created with a MeterProvider with the name and version of the instrumentation
-library.
-
-Instrumentation should be designed to accept a MeterProvider from which it can
-create its own unique Meter. Alternatively, the registered global
-MeterProvider from the go.opentelemetry.io/otel/api/global package can be used
-as a default.
