A configurable, high-performance routing runtime for Apollo Federation 🚀
Documentation
//! Trace provider construction
//!
//! This module provides tools for building OpenTelemetry tracer providers from router configuration.
//!
//! ## Purpose
//!
//! The [`TracingBuilder`] constructs a tracer provider that handles distributed tracing across
//! multiple backends (OTLP, Datadog, Zipkin, Apollo). It also configures trace propagation to
//! ensure trace context is properly propagated across service boundaries.
//!
//! ## Configurator Pattern
//!
//! The [`TracingConfigurator`] trait allows different trace exporters to contribute span processors
//! to the builder. Each exporter (OTLP, Datadog, Zipkin, Apollo) implements this trait to add its
//! specific span processing logic.
//!
//! ## Propagation
//!
//! The [`create_propagator`] function builds a composite propagator supporting multiple trace
//! context formats (W3C Trace Context, Jaeger, Zipkin, Datadog, AWS X-Ray). This allows the router
//! to interoperate with services using different tracing systems.
