Instrumenting free5GC with OpenTelemetry

General Discussions

Hello there,

Are you interested in instrumenting the HTTP part of free5GC?

Each NF in free5GC is implemented as a microservice, it is possible to use OpenTelemetry to trace interactions between them in detail. I am working on improving observability of 5G networks.

Would providing such implementations and usecases be beneficial to the community?

I am also engaged in activities like those in the following link to explore whether OpenTelemetry can improve the observability of 5G.

Hi, thanks for sharing this. I’m also looking into using OpenTelemetry with free5GC. Just wondering—have you already instrumented it? If yes, do you have a public repo you could share? That would be really helpful.
