Version 1.13.0

[github-actions[bot]]

This release targets the OpenTelemetry SDK 1.13.0.

Note that all artifacts other than io.opentelemetry.javaagent:opentelemetry-javaagent have the -alpha suffix attached to their version number, reflecting that they are still alpha quality and will continue to have breaking changes. Please see the VERSIONING.md for more details.

Migration notes

• Micrometer instrumentation is now automatically applied to spring-boot-actuator apps
• Some configuration properties have been renamed:
  • otel.instrumentation.common.experimental.suppress-controller-spans -> otel.instrumentation.common.experimental.controller-telemetry.enabled (important: note that the meaning is inverted)
  • otel.instrumentation.common.experimental.suppress-view-spans -> otel.instrumentation.common.experimental.view-telemetry.enabled (important: note that the meaning is inverted)
  • otel.instrumentation.netty.always-create-connect-span -> otel.instrumentation.netty.connection-telemetry.enabled
  • otel.instrumentation.reactor-netty.always-create-connect-span -> otel.instrumentation.reactor-netty.connection-telemetry.enabled
• Runtime memory metric names were updated to reflect semantic conventions
• Micrometer library instrumentation has been deprecated as it has been moved to the core repo and is now published under io.opentelemetry:opentelemetry-micrometer1-shim
• Library instrumentation entry points have been renamed from *Tracing to *Telemetry
