Track observability business metric (metric 7) #4420

vcjana · 2025-11-24T08:37:10Z

Motivation and Context

Implements business metric tracking for observability providers per SEP User Agent 2.1 specification. The metric '7' (ObservabilityOtelMetrics) must be tracked when users configure OpenTelemetry metrics providers to help AWS understand observability usage patterns.

Description

This PR adds a new ObservabilityMetricDecorator that tracks the observability metric when OpenTelemetry metrics providers are configured through the global telemetry provider.

Implementation

The decorator registers an ObservabilityFeatureTrackerInterceptor that runs during request execution. It checks the global telemetry provider and uses type downcasting to detect if an OtelMeterProvider is configured:

Checks global telemetry provider via aws_smithy_observability::global::get_telemetry_provider()
Uses downcast_ref::<OtelMeterProvider>() for reliable type detection
Adds as_any() method to ProvideMeter trait to enable downcasting
Stores metric in interceptor state when OTel provider is detected

When an OpenTelemetry metrics provider is configured, the metric is tracked in the User-Agent header.

Checklist

I have updated CHANGELOG.next.toml if I made changes to the smithy-rs codegen or runtime crates
I have updated CHANGELOG.next.toml if I made changes to the AWS SDK, generated SDK code, or SDK runtime crates

Note: This is a draft PR for review. The implementation successfully tracks OpenTelemetry metrics provider usage, which covers the SEP requirements for metric 7.

Good start, couple of questions and suggestions. The biggest thing is figuring out what build issues you were encountering didn't allow you to test against the actual aws-smithy-observability-otel crate.

landonxjames · 2025-12-02T03:36:11Z

aws/rust-runtime/aws-inlineable/src/observability_feature.rs

+
+            // Check the provider name to detect OpenTelemetry without importing the otel crate
+            // This avoids compilation issues with the opentelemetry dependency
+            if meter_provider.provider_name() == "otel" {


I think this is ok, but this could be faked. I don't know that that is something we really need to defend against though.

If we used the as_any cast along with a downcast_ref we could guarantee that it was our implementation of Otel. What were the compilation issues we are avoiding with this strategy?

It turns out the 'static bound needed to be on the trait itself rather than just the method. This was causing all the build failures.

And we still can't use the as_any() + downcast_ref() in meter_provider as it is a trait object(&dyn ProvideMeter). The as_any() method has a where Self: Sized constraint, which trait objects don't satisfy by design.

I think we could still use the as_any. If there isn't a default impl of as_any it doesn't need the Sized bound and something like this should work: 95fa386
