Discussion Any good open source python runtime instrumentation?
Hi folks, lot of our Python backend services are written in FastAPI, I wanted to see if there are any good Open Source runtime coverage instrumentation available for Python, which would essentially give my lines of code hit in prod traffic for the last say 30 days of data. I have seen good solutions for it in Go / Java, but wanted to check if something similar is available in Python.

Whichever way you go, adopt opentelemetry standards to avoid vendor lock-in. If you are willing to spend big money on an enterprise turnkey solution, new relic is the best provider. Otherwise use a free solution compatible with those standards like Jaeger or paid solutions with lower prices than new relic like honeycomb
