Enabling the Application Tracing

In TIBCO BusinessEvents, by default tracing feature is implemented for various artifacts; however, spans are not created for those artifacts till you configure the telemetry settings in the application CDD. Span creation and instrumentation for your application code happens only after you specify a span exporter in the application CDD.

Before You Begin

  • Set up and configure your analyzing software. For the setup and configuration details of these software, see the respective documentation.

  • Run the analyzing software.

    Procedure

  1. Open your application in the TIBCO BusinessEvents Studio, and open its CDD file.

  2. In the CDD file, click the Cluster tab and select Telemetry Configuration.

  3. Provide the value for the configuration fields, see Telemetry Configurations Settings.

  4. Save the CDD file.

  5. Run the TIBCO BusinessEvents engine for your application.

Example

TIBCO BusinessEvents provides OpenTelemetry implementation example for the fraud detection scenario. The example is available at BE_HOME/examples/standard/FraudDetectionTelemetry/FraudDetectionTelemetry.

You can import the example application in TIBCO BusinessEvents to see the sample CDD configuration. To view the sample tracing for the fraud detection scenario, run the example using the readme.html file at BE_HOME/examples/standard/FraudDetectionTelemetry.
