The criteria I was given was "every integration that's not a client for an external service." I know the kafka producer is a network client, but that one was explicitly approved. They decided to do the producer and skip the consumer. The rest end up being mostly http servers and grpc. |

…ataDog#603) This commit marks relevant spans in our integrations to be measured. Previously, choosing which spans are measured was done elsewhere. We are able to do this now that we have support for manually marking spans to be measured (DataDog#591). A relevant span is any span that sets a service name, and is likely to have a parent span from the user's code or a different integration. Any spans that will be children of spans from the same integration don't need to be measured. We also don't measure spans that are for integrations for external service clients. This is a very generic class of integrations, and includes any integration for a package that is primarily an API to an external service. This includes SQL integrations, the aws integration, the client portion of the grpc integration, the http client integration, etc. This is actually most of our integrations. The reason for this is that there can be conflicts when measuring client spans that may cause inaccurate metrics.

Until recently, spans were measured only when they were considered "top-level" for a service - i.e. their service name differed from their parent's. Now we have support for manually marking a span to be measured (#591).
Since we have this option, we want to mark relevant spans in our integrations to be measured. Any span that sets its own service name, and is most likely to have a parent span from the user's code or a different integration should be measured. Any spans that will be children of spans from the same integration don't need to be measured.
There is another caveat, which is that we don't want to measure spans that are for integrations for external service clients. This is a very generic class of integrations, and includes any integration for a package that is primarily an API to an external service. This includes SQL integrations, the aws integration, the client portion of the grpc integration, the http client integration, etc. This is actually most of our integrations. The reason for this is that there can be conflicts when measuring client spans that may cause inaccurate metrics.
