You configure OpenTelemetry tracing in ASP.NET Core by adding distributed traces for HTTP requests and custom instrumentation. This Skill guides you through the setup to export traces using OTLP, console, or Serilog exporters for performance monitoring.

The best way to implement structured logging in .NET is using Microsoft.Extensions.Logging or Serilog. This Skill helps you configure high-performance structured logs to troubleshoot issues and understand application behavior effectively.

Yes, this OpenTelemetry .NET integration supports custom metrics. It enables comprehensive observability by allowing you to define custom application metrics alongside distributed tracing and structured logging to monitor specific performance data.

Yes, you can use Serilog as an exporter for .NET observability. This Skill includes options for configuring Serilog alongside console and OTLP exporters to handle structured logging output from your application.

To configure health checks for ASP.NET Core orchestration, you set up liveness and readiness probes. This Skill provides implementation guidance for adding health check endpoints to ensure reliable application deployment and monitoring.

You need HttpClient instrumentation for distributed tracing in .NET to track outbound HTTP requests. This Skill supports configuring HttpClient custom instrumentation to capture distributed traces across service boundaries.
