OWASP 2025 Top 10 Adds Software Supply Chain Failures, Ranked Top Community Concern
OWASP’s 2025 Top 10 introduces Software Supply Chain Failures as a new category, reflecting rising concern over dependency and build system risks.
@opentelemetry/plugin-mysql
Advanced tools
This module provides automatic instrumentation for mysql.
For automatic instrumentation see the @opentelemetry/node package.
npm install --save @opentelemetry/plugin-mysql
~2.0.0OpenTelemetry MySQL Instrumentation allows the user to automatically collect trace data and export them to the backend of choice, to give observability to distributed systems when working with mysql.
To load a specific plugin (MySQL in this case), specify it in the registerInstrumentations's configuration
const { NodeTracerProvider } = require('@opentelemetry/node');
const { registerInstrumentations } = require('@opentelemetry/instrumentation');
const provider = new NodeTracerProvider();
provider.register();
registerInstrumentations({
instrumentations: [
{
plugins: {
mysql: {
enabled: true,
// You may use a package name or absolute path to the file.
path: '@opentelemetry/plugin-mysql',
}
},
},
],
tracerProvider: provider,
});
To load all of the supported plugins, use below approach. Each plugin is only loaded when the module that it patches is loaded; in other words, there is no computational overhead for listing plugins for unused modules.
const { NodeTracerProvider } = require('@opentelemetry/node');
const { registerInstrumentations } = require('@opentelemetry/instrumentation');
const provider = new NodeTracerProvider();
provider.register();
registerInstrumentations({
tracerProvider: provider,
});
