OpenCensus Instana Trace Exporter

The OpenCensus Instana Trace Exporter is a trace exporter that exports data to Instana. Instana is a distributed tracing system.

Quickstart

Prerequisites

Instana forwards traces exported by applications instrumented with Census to its backend using the Instana agent processes as proxy. If the agent is used on the same host as Census, please take care to deactivate automatic tracing.
