v1.74.1: v1 transitional version

Warning

This release has been retracted, use the latest v1.74.x available instead.

Note

This is the last minor release for v1. The Go tracer v1 transitional version is a wrapper that preserves the API from v1 but uses v2 under the hood.

This transitional version is the only v1 version that allows both v1 and v2 to be imported in the same service—enabling you to migrate a service gradually. Using this v1 transitional version doesn’t require any code changes, but it also won’t support any new features introduced in the new v2 tracer.

Changes

Updates github.com/DataDog/dd-trace-go/v2 from v2.0.0 to v2.0.1

v2.0.0

Warning

This release has been retracted, use the latest v2.x.x available instead.

Summary

Datadog has long supported the monitoring of instrumented Go applications through our Go tracer v1. As the Go ecosystem has continued to mature, we’ve been hard at work collecting feedback and improving upon the tracer’s capabilities and usability features.

We are now thrilled to announce the release of dd-trace-go v2.0.0. This major update includes better security and stability, and a new and simplified API. In creating this updated version, we have incorporated valuable feedback both from our customer community and from our own teams at Datadog who use the Go tracer extensively. We have already tested this new version in production and have migrated all our internal services.

A migration guide has been provided to help users running version 1.x with upgrading. It can be found here.

To view the complete set of changes implemented in this release, please refer to the issues and PRs marked with the v2.0 label in our GitHub repository.

v1.74.0: v1 transitional version

Warning

This release has been retracted, use the latest v1.74.x available instead.

Note

This is the last minor release for v1. The Go tracer v1 transitional version is a wrapper that preserves the API from v1 but uses v2 under the hood.

This transitional version is the only v1 version that allows both v1 and v2 to be imported in the same service—enabling you to migrate a service gradually. Using this v1 transitional version doesn’t require any code changes, but it also won’t support any new features introduced in the new v2 tracer.

Note that, while we are offering the v1 transitional version for the convenience of our customers, we strongly encourage you to upgrade to the v2 version as soon as possible to benefit from the newest features and improvements. If you have concerns or reasons to not upgrade to the transitional version, contact us and we’ll work together to resolve them.

v1.73.1

What's Changed

Note

This is a patch release of the last v1 version before the v1 transitional release v1.74.0 planned for May/June 2025. The Go tracer v1 transitional version is essentially a wrapper that preserves the API from v1 but uses v2 under the hood.

The transitional version can co-exist with v2 in the same service, which enables you to migrate services gradually. Using the v1 transitional version - starting at v1.74.0 - doesn’t require any code changes, but it also won’t support any new features of the new v2 tracer.

The v1 transitional version is planned for release in late May/early June 2025 as v1.74.0.

v1.72.2

What's Changed

General

• Add missing headers on Stats payload by @ichinaski in #3337

Full Changelog: v1.72.1...v1.72.2

v1.72.1

What's Changed

This release contains a small fix for the Inferred Proxy Spans feature (implemented in #3052) that adds a new tag to correctly identify these spans.

Application Performance Monitoring (APM)

• contrib/internal/httptrace: add inferred span identification tag by @zarirhamza in #3184

Full Changelog: v1.72.0...v1.72.1

v1.72.0

What's Changed

Note

There is a minor behaviour breaking change in tracer.SpanFromContext. Now, it also returns false in the second return value when the span from the context is a no-op span, which only happens when spans are created without a tracer being started (previously it used to return true). This change shouldn't have any effect in applications that correctly start the tracer before creating spans.
