datadog
gem v2.x. If you are looking for ddtrace
gem v1.x documentation, see the legacy Tracing Ruby Applications documentation.datadog
is Datadog’s client library for Ruby. It includes a suite of tools which provide visibility into the performance and security of Ruby applications, to enable Ruby developers to identify bottlenecks and other issues.
If you’re upgrading from a 0.x version, check out our upgrade guide.
For the general APM documentation, see our setup documentation.
For more information about what APM looks like once your application is sending information to Datadog, take a look at Terms and Concepts.
For the library API documentation, see our YARD documentation.
To contribute, check out the contribution guidelines and development guide.
For a full list of Datadog’s Ruby library support, see Compatibility Requirements.
Adding tracing to your Ruby application only takes a few quick steps:
Before installing datadog
, install the Datadog Agent, to which datadog
will send trace data.
Then configure the Datadog Agent to accept traces. To do this, either:
DD_APM_ENABLED=true
in the Agent’s environmentOR
apm_enabled: true
to the Agent’s configuration fileAdditionally, in containerized environments…
DD_APM_NON_LOCAL_TRAFFIC=true
in the Agent’s environmentOR
apm_non_local_traffic: true
to the Agent’s configuration file.See the specific setup instructions for Docker, Kubernetes, Amazon ECS or Fargate to ensure that the Agent is configured to receive traces in a containerized environment.
The Datadog Agent will listen for traces via HTTP on port 8126
by default.
You may change the protocol or port the Agent listens for trace data using the following:
For HTTP over TCP:
DD_APM_RECEIVER_PORT=<port>
in the Agent’s environmentOR
apm_config: receiver_port: <port>
to the Agent’s configuration fileFor Unix Domain Socket (UDS):
DD_APM_RECEIVER_SOCKET=<path-to-socket-file>
OR
apm_config: receiver_socket: <path-to-socket-file>
to the Agent’s configuration fileAdd the datadog
gem to your Gemfile:
source 'https://rubygems.org'
gem 'datadog', require: 'datadog/auto_instrument'
Install the gem with bundle install
Create a config/initializers/datadog.rb
file containing:
Datadog.configure do |c|
# Add additional configuration here.
# Activate integrations, change tracer settings, etc...
end
Using this block you can:
If your application does not use the supported gems (Rails or Hanami) above, you can set it up as follows:
Add the datadog
gem to your Gemfile:
source 'https://rubygems.org'
gem 'datadog'
Install the gem with bundle install
require
any supported libraries or frameworks that should be instrumented.
Add require 'datadog/auto_instrument'
to your application. Note: This must be done after requiring any supported libraries or frameworks.
# Example frameworks and libraries
require 'sinatra'
require 'faraday'
require 'redis'
require 'datadog/auto_instrument'
Add a configuration block to your application:
Datadog.configure do |c|
# Add additional configuration here.
# Activate integrations, change tracer settings, etc...
end
Using this block you can:
You can send OpenTelemetry traces directly to the Datadog Agent (without datadog
) by using OTLP. Check out our documentation on OTLP ingest in the Datadog Agent for details.
By default, datadog
will connect to the Agent using the first available settings in the listed priority:
/var/run/datadog/apm.socket
127.0.0.1:8126
If your Datadog Agent is listening at any of these locations, no further configuration should be required.
If your Agent runs on a different host or container than your application, or you would like to send traces via a different protocol, you will need to configure your application accordingly.
After setting up, your services will appear on the APM services page within a few minutes. Learn more about using the APM UI.
If you aren’t using a supported framework instrumentation, you may want to manually instrument your code.
To trace any Ruby code, you can use the Datadog::Tracing.trace
method:
Datadog::Tracing.trace(name, **options) do |span, trace|
# Wrap this block around the code you want to instrument
# Additionally, you can modify the span here.
# e.g. Change the resource name, set tags, etc...
end
Where name
should be a String
that describes the generic kind of operation being done (e.g. 'web.request'
, or 'request.parse'
)
And options
are the following optional keyword arguments:
Key | Type | Description | Default |
---|---|---|---|
autostart | Bool | Whether the time measurement should be started automatically. If false , user must call span.start . | true |
continue_from | Datadog::TraceDigest | Continues a trace that originated from another execution context. TraceDigest describes the continuation point. | nil |
on_error | Proc | Overrides error handling behavior, when a span raises an error. Provided span and error as arguments. Sets error on the span by default. | proc {| span, error | span.set_error(error) unless span.nil? } |
resource | String | Name of the resource or action being operated on. Traces with the same resource value will be grouped together for the purpose of metrics (but still independently viewable.) Usually domain specific, such as a URL, query, request, etc. (e.g. 'Article#submit' , http://example.com/articles/list .) | name of Span. |
service | String | The service name which this span belongs (e.g. 'my-web-service' ) | Tracer default-service , $PROGRAM_NAME or 'ruby' |
start_time | Time | When the span actually starts. Useful when tracing events that have already happened. | Time.now |
tags | Hash | Extra tags which should be added to the span. | {} |
type | String | The type of the span (such as 'http' , 'db' , etc.) | nil |
It’s highly recommended you set both service
and resource
at a minimum. Spans without a service
or resource
as nil
will be discarded by the Datadog agent.
Example of manual instrumentation in action:
get '/posts' do
Datadog::Tracing.trace('web.request', service: 'my-blog', resource: 'GET /posts') do |span|
# Trace the activerecord call
Datadog::Tracing.trace('posts.fetch') do
@posts = Posts.order(created_at: :desc).limit(10)
end
# Add some APM tags
span.set_tag('http.method', request.request_method)
span.set_tag('posts.count', @posts.length)
# Trace the template rendering
Datadog::Tracing.trace('template.render') do
erb :index
end
end
end
It might not always be possible to wrap Datadog::Tracing.trace
around a block of code. Some event or notification based instrumentation might only notify you when an event begins or ends.
To trace these operations, you can trace code asynchronously by calling Datadog::Tracing.trace
without a block:
# Some instrumentation framework calls this after an event finishes...
def db_query(start, finish, query)
span = Datadog::Tracing.trace('database.query', start_time: start)
span.resource = query
span.finish(finish)
end
Calling Datadog::Tracing.trace
without a block will cause the function to return a Datadog::Tracing::SpanOperation
that is started, but not finished. You can then modify this span however you wish, then close it finish
.
You must not leave any unfinished spans. If any spans are left open when the trace completes, the trace will be discarded. You can activate debug mode to check for warnings if you suspect this might be happening.
To avoid this scenario when handling start/finish events, you can use Datadog::Tracing.active_span
to get the current active span.
# e.g. ActiveSupport::Notifications calls this when an event starts
def start(name, id, payload)
# Start a span
Datadog::Tracing.trace(name)
end
# e.g. ActiveSupport::Notifications calls this when an event finishes
def finish(name, id, payload)
# Retrieve current active span (thread-safe)
current_span = Datadog::Tracing.active_span
unless current_span.nil?
current_span.resource = payload[:query]
current_span.finish
end
end
You can tag additional information to the current active span from any method. Note however that if the method is called and there is no span currently active active_span
will be nil.
# e.g. adding tag to active span
current_span = Datadog::Tracing.active_span
current_span.set_tag('my_tag', 'my_value') unless current_span.nil?
You can also get the current active trace using the active_trace
method. This method will return nil
if there is no active trace.
# e.g. accessing active trace
current_trace = Datadog::Tracing.active_trace
Many popular libraries and frameworks are supported out-of-the-box, which can be auto-instrumented. Although they are not activated automatically, they can be easily activated and configured by using the Datadog.configure
API:
Datadog.configure do |c|
# Activates and configures an integration
c.tracing.instrument :integration_name, **options
end
options
are keyword arguments for integration-specific configuration.
For a list of available integrations and their supported versions, see Ruby Integration Compatibility.

require 'tmpdir'
require 'sqlite3'
require 'active_record'
require 'datadog'
Datadog.configure do |c|
c.tracing.instrument :active_record, **options
end
Dir::Tmpname.create(['test', '.sqlite']) do |db|

Configuring trace settings per database
You can configure trace settings per database connection by using the describes
option:
# Provide a `:describes` option with a connection key.
# Any of the following keys are acceptable and equivalent to one another.
# If a block is provided, it yields a Settings object that
# accepts any of the configuration options listed above.
Datadog.configure do |c|
# Symbol matching your database connection in config/database.yml
# Only available if you are using Rails with ActiveRecord.
c.tracing.instrument :active_record, describes: :secondary_database, service_name: 'secondary-db'
# Block configuration pattern.
c.tracing.instrument :active_record, describes: :secondary_database do |second_db|
second_db.service_name = 'secondary-db'
end
# Connection string with the following connection settings:
# adapter, username, host, port, database
# Other fields are ignored.
c.tracing.instrument :active_record, describes: 'mysql2://root@127.0.0.1:3306/mysql', service_name: 'secondary-db'
# Hash with following connection settings:
# adapter, username, host, port, database
# Other fields are ignored.
c.tracing.instrument :active_record, describes: {
adapter: 'mysql2',
host: '127.0.0.1',
port: '3306',
database: 'mysql',
username: 'root'
},
service_name: 'secondary-db'
# If using the `makara` gem, it's possible to match on connection `role`:
c.tracing.instrument :active_record, describes: { makara_role: 'primary' }, service_name: 'primary-db'
c.tracing.instrument :active_record, describes: { makara_role: 'replica' }, service_name: 'secondary-db'
end
You can also create configurations based on partial matching of database connection fields:
Datadog.configure do |c|
# Matches any connection on host `127.0.0.1`.
c.tracing.instrument :active_record, describes: { host: '127.0.0.1' }, service_name: 'local-db'
# Matches any `mysql2` connection.
c.tracing.instrument :active_record, describes: { adapter: 'mysql2'}, service_name: 'mysql-db'
# Matches any `mysql2` connection to the `reports` database.
#
# In case of multiple matching `describe` configurations, the latest one applies.
# In this case a connection with both adapter `mysql` and database `reports`
# will be configured `service_name: 'reports-db'`, not `service_name: 'mysql-db'`.
c.tracing.instrument :active_record, describes: { adapter: 'mysql2', database: 'reports'}, service_name: 'reports-db'
end
When multiple describes
configurations match a connection, the latest configured rule that matches will be applied.
If ActiveRecord traces an event that uses a connection that matches a key defined by describes
, it will use the trace settings assigned to that connection. If the connection does not match any of the described connections, it will use default settings defined by c.tracing.instrument :active_record
instead.
Most of the time, Active Support is set up as part of Rails, but it can be activated separately:

# Then run a GraphQL query
YourSchema.execute(query, variables: {}, context: {}, operation_name: nil)
The instrument :graphql
method accepts the following parameters. Additional options can be substituted in for options
:
Key | Env Var | Type | Description | Default |
---|---|---|---|---|
enabled | DD_TRACE_GRAPHQL_ENABLED | Bool | Whether the integration should create spans. | true |
schemas | Array | Array of GraphQL::Schema objects (that support class-based schema only) to trace. If you do not provide any, then tracing will applied to all the schemas. | [] | |
with_unified_tracer | Bool | (Recommended) Enable to instrument with UnifiedTrace tracer for graphql >= v2.2, enabling support for API Catalog. with_deprecated_tracer has priority over this. Default is false , using GraphQL::Tracing::DataDogTrace instead | false | |
with_deprecated_tracer | Bool | Enable to instrument with deprecated GraphQL::Tracing::DataDogTracing . This has priority over with_unified_tracer . Default is false , using GraphQL::Tracing::DataDogTrace instead | false | |
service_name | String | Service name used for graphql instrumentation | 'ruby-graphql' |
Once an instrumentation strategy is selected (with_unified_tracer: true
, with_deprecated_tracer: true
, or no option set which defaults to GraphQL::Tracing::DataDogTrace
), it is not possible to change the instrumentation strategy in the same Ruby process.
This is especially important for auto instrumented applications because an automatic initial instrumentation is always applied at startup, thus such applications will always instrument GraphQL with the default strategy (GraphQL::Tracing::DataDogTrace
).
Manually configuring GraphQL schemas
If you prefer, you can individually configure the tracer settings per schema (e.g. you have multiple schemas with distinct instrumentation options).
Do NOT c.tracing.instrument :graphql
in Datadog.configure
if you choose to configure schema settings manually, as to avoid double tracing. These two means of configuring GraphQL tracing are mutually exclusive.
To instrument each schema individually, you add the following using the GraphQL API:
For graphql
>= v2.2:
class YourSchema < GraphQL::Schema
trace_with Datadog::Tracing::Contrib::GraphQL::UnifiedTrace
end
For graphql
< v2.2:
class YourSchema < GraphQL::Schema
trace_with GraphQL::Tracing::DataDogTrace
end
Using the deprecated tracer GraphQL (GraphQL::Tracing::DataDogTracing
):
class YourSchema < GraphQL::Schema
use(GraphQL::Tracing::DataDogTracing)
end
Note: This integration does not support define-style schemas. Only class-based schemas are supported.
Adding custom tags to Datadog spans
You can add custom tags to Datadog spans by implementing the prepare_span
method in a subclass, then manually configuring your schema.
class YourSchema < GraphQL::Schema
module CustomTracing
include Datadog::Tracing::Contrib::GraphQL::UnifiedTrace
def prepare_span(trace_key, data, span)
span.set_tag("custom:#{trace_key}", data.keys.sort.join(","))
end
end
trace_with CustomTracing
end
The grpc
integration adds both client and server interceptors, which run as middleware before executing the service’s remote procedure call. As gRPC applications are often distributed, the integration shares trace information between client and server.
To setup your integration, use the Datadog.configure
method like so:
require 'grpc'
require 'datadog'
Datadog.configure do |c|
c.tracing.instrument :grpc, **options
end
# Server side
server = GRPC::RpcServer.new
server.add_http2_port('localhost:50051', :this_port_is_insecure)
server.handle(Demo)
server.run_till_terminated
# Client side
client = Demo.rpc_stub_class.new('localhost:50051', :this_channel_is_insecure)
client.my_endpoint(DemoMessage.new(contents: 'hello!'))
options
are the following keyword arguments:
Key | Env Var | Type | Description | Default |
---|---|---|---|---|
enabled | DD_TRACE_GRPC_ENABLED | Bool | Whether the integration should create spans. | true |
service_name | DD_TRACE_GRPC_SERVICE_NAME | String | Name of application running the grpc instrumentation. May be overridden by global_default_service_name . See Additional Configuration for more details | grpc |
peer_service | DD_TRACE_GRPC_PEER_SERVICE | String | Name of external service the application connects to | nil |
distributed_tracing | Bool | Enables distributed tracing | true | |
on_error | Proc | Custom error handler invoked when there is an error. A Proc that accepts span and error parameters. Sets error on the span by default. | proc { |span, error | span.set_error(error) unless span.nil? } |
Configuring clients to use different settings
In situations where you have multiple clients calling multiple distinct services, you may pass the Datadog interceptor directly, like so
configured_interceptor = Datadog::Tracing::Contrib::GRPC::DatadogInterceptor::Client.new do |c|
c.service_name = "Alternate"
end
alternate_client = Demo::Echo::Service.rpc_stub_class.new(
'localhost:50052',
:this_channel_is_insecure,
:interceptors => [configured_interceptor]
)
The integration will ensure that the configured_interceptor
establishes a unique tracing setup for that client instance.
The hanami
integration will instrument routing, action and render for your hanami application. To enable the hanami
instrumentation, it is recommended to auto instrument with

You can add instrumentation around your Rake tasks by activating the rake
integration and
providing a list of what Rake tasks need to be instrumented.
Avoid instrumenting long-running Rake tasks, as such tasks can aggregate large traces in memory that are never flushed until the task finishes.
For long-running tasks, use Manual instrumentation around recurring code paths.
To activate Rake task tracing, add the following to your Rakefile
:
# At the top of your Rakefile:
require 'rake'
require 'datadog'
Datadog.configure do |c|
c.tracing.instrument :rake, tasks: ['my_task'], **options
end
task :my_task do
# Do something task work here...
end
Rake::Task['my_task'].invoke
options
are the following keyword arguments:
Key | Env Var | Type | Description | Default |
---|---|---|---|---|
enabled | Bool | Defines whether Rake tasks should be traced. Useful for temporarily disabling tracing. true or false | true | |
quantize | Hash | Hash containing options for quantization of task arguments. See below for more details and examples. | {} | |
service_name | String | Service name used for rake instrumentation | 'rake' | |
tasks | Array | Names of the Rake tasks to instrument | [] | |
enabled | DD_TRACE_RAKE_ENABLED | Bool | Whether the integration should create spans. | true |
Configuring task quantization behavior
Datadog.configure do |c|
# Given a task that accepts :one, :two, :three...
# Invoked with 'foo', 'bar', 'baz'.
# Default behavior: all arguments are quantized.
# `rake.invoke.args` tag --> ['?']
# `rake.execute.args` tag --> { one: '?', two: '?', three: '?' }
c.tracing.instrument :rake
# Show values for any argument matching :two exactly
# `rake.invoke.args` tag --> ['?']
# `rake.execute.args` tag --> { one: '?', two: 'bar', three: '?' }
c.tracing.instrument :rake, quantize: { args: { show: [:two] } }
# Show all values for all arguments.
# `rake.invoke.args` tag --> ['foo', 'bar', 'baz']
# `rake.execute.args` tag --> { one: 'foo', two: 'bar', three: 'baz' }
c.tracing.instrument :rake, quantize: { args: { show: :all } }
# Totally exclude any argument matching :three exactly
# `rake.invoke.args` tag --> ['?']
# `rake.execute.args` tag --> { one: '?', two: '?' }
c.tracing.instrument :rake, quantize: { args: { exclude: [:three] } }
# Remove the arguments entirely
# `rake.invoke.args` tag --> ['?']
# `rake.execute.args` tag --> {}
c.tracing.instrument :rake, quantize: { args: { exclude: :all } }
end
The Redis integration will trace simple calls as well as pipelines.
require 'redis'

end
# Perform Redis commands
redis = Redis.new
redis.set 'foo', 'bar'
options

Configuring trace settings per instance
With Redis version >= 5:
require 'redis'
require 'datadog'
Datadog.configure do |c|
c.tracing.instrument :redis # Enabling integration instrumentation is still required
end
customer_cache = Redis.new(custom: { datadog: { service_name: 'custom-cache' } })
invoice_cache = Redis.new(custom: { datadog: { service_name: 'invoice-cache' } })
# Traced call will belong to `customer-cache` service
customer_cache.get(...)
# Traced call will belong to `invoice-cache` service
invoice_cache.get(...)
With a standalone RedisClient
:
require "redis-client"
require "datadog"
redis = RedisClient.config(custom: { datadog: { service_name: "my-custom-redis" } }).new_client
Datadog.configure do |c|
c.tracing.instrument :redis # Enabling integration instrumentation is still required
end
redis.call('PING')
With Redis version < 5:
require 'redis'
require 'datadog'
Datadog.configure do |c|
c.tracing.instrument :redis # Enabling integration instrumentation is still required
end
customer_cache = Redis.new
invoice_cache = Redis.new
Datadog.configure_onto(customer_cache, service_name: 'customer-cache')
Datadog.configure_onto(invoice_cache, service_name: 'invoice-cache')
# Traced call will belong to `customer-cache` service
customer_cache.get(...)
# Traced call will belong to `invoice-cache` service
invoice_cache.get(...)
Configuring trace settings per connection
You can configure trace settings per connection by using the describes
option:
# Provide a `:describes` option with a connection key.
# Any of the following keys are acceptable and equivalent to one another.
# If a block is provided, it yields a Settings object that
# accepts any of the configuration options listed above.
Datadog.configure do |c|
# The default configuration for any redis client
c.tracing.instrument :redis, service_name: 'redis-default'
# The configuration matching a given unix socket.
c.tracing.instrument :redis, describes: { url: 'unix://path/to/file' }, service_name: 'redis-unix'
# For network connections, only these fields are considered during matching:
# scheme, host, port, db
# Other fields are ignored.
# Network connection string
c.tracing.instrument :redis, describes: 'redis://127.0.0.1:6379/0', service_name: 'redis-connection-string'
c.tracing.instrument :redis, describes: { url: 'redis://127.0.0.1:6379/1' }, service_name: 'redis-connection-url'
# Network client hash
c.tracing.instrument :redis, describes: { host: 'my-host.com', port: 6379, db: 1, scheme: 'redis' }, service_name: 'redis-connection-hash'
# Only a subset of the connection hash
c.tracing.instrument :redis, describes: { host: ENV['APP_CACHE_HOST'], port: ENV['APP_CACHE_PORT'] }, service_name: 'redis-cache'
c.tracing.instrument :redis, describes: { host: ENV['SIDEKIQ_CACHE_HOST'] }, service_name: 'redis-sidekiq'
end
When multiple describes
configurations match a connection, the latest configured rule that matches will be applied.

To change the default behavior of datadog
, you can use, in order of priority, with 1 being the highest:
Options set inside a Datadog.configure
block, e.g.:
Datadog.configure do |c|
c.service = 'billing-api'
c.env = ENV['RACK_ENV']
c.tracing.report_hostname = true
c.tracing.test_mode.enabled = (ENV['RACK_ENV'] == 'test')
end
Environment variables.
If a higher priority value is set for an option, setting that option with a lower priority value will not change its effective value.
For example, if tracing.sampling.default_rate
is configured by Remote Configuration, changing its value through the Datadog.configure
block will have no effect.

By default, all logs are processed by the default Ruby logger. When using Rails, you should see the messages in your application log file.
Datadog client log messages are marked with [datadog]
so you should be able to isolate them from other messages.
Additionally, it is possible to override the default logger and replace it by a custom one. This is done using the log
setting.
f = File.new("my-custom.log", "w+") # Log messages should go there
Datadog.configure do |c|
c.logger.instance = Logger.new(f) # Overriding the default logger
c.logger.level = ::Logger::INFO
end
Datadog.logger.info { "this is typically called by tracing code" }
By default, the trace Agent (not this library, but the program running in the background collecting data from various clients) uses the tags set in the Agent config file. You can configure the application to automatically tag your traces and metrics, using the following environment variables:
DD_ENV
: Your application environment (e.g. production
, staging
, etc.)DD_SERVICE
: Your application’s default service name (e.g. billing-api
)DD_VERSION
: Your application version (e.g. 2.5
, 202003181415
, 1.3-alpha
, etc.)DD_TAGS
: Custom tags in value pairs separated by ,
(e.g. layer:api,team:intake
)DD_ENV
, DD_SERVICE
or DD_VERSION
are set, it will override any respective env
/service
/version
tag defined in DD_TAGS
.DD_ENV
, DD_SERVICE
or DD_VERSION
are NOT set, tags defined in DD_TAGS
will be used to populate env
/service
/version
respectively.These values can also be overridden at the tracer level:
Datadog.configure do |c|
c.service = 'billing-api'
c.env = 'test'
c.tags = { 'team' => 'qa' }
c.version = '1.3-alpha'
end
This enables you to set this value on a per application basis, so you can have for example several applications reporting for different environments on the same host.
Tags can also be set directly on individual spans, which will supersede any conflicting tags defined at the application level.
There are two different suggested means of producing diagnostics for tracing:
Switching the library into debug mode will produce verbose, detailed logs about tracing activity, including any suppressed errors. This output can be helpful in identifying errors, or confirming trace output to the Agent.
You can enable this via diagnostics.debug = true
or DD_TRACE_DEBUG
.
Datadog.configure { |c| c.diagnostics.debug = true }
We do NOT recommend use of this feature in production or other sensitive environments, as it can be very verbose under load. It’s best to use this in a controlled environment where you can control application load.
Startup logs produce a report of tracing state when the application is initially configured. This can be helpful for confirming that configuration and instrumentation is activated correctly.
You can enable this via diagnostics.startup_logs.enabled = true
or DD_TRACE_STARTUP_LOGS
.
Datadog.configure { |c| c.diagnostics.startup_logs.enabled = true }
By default, this will be activated whenever datadog
detects the application is running in a non-development environment.
See Ingestion Mechanisms for a list of all the sampling options available.
Priority sampling decides whether to keep a trace by using a priority attribute propagated for distributed traces. Its value indicates to the Agent and the backend about how important the trace is.
The sampler can set the priority to the following values:
Datadog::Tracing::Sampling::Ext::Priority::AUTO_REJECT
: the sampler automatically decided to reject the trace.Datadog::Tracing::Sampling::Ext::Priority::AUTO_KEEP
: the sampler automatically decided to keep the trace.Priority sampling is enabled by default. Enabling it ensures that your sampled distributed traces will be complete. Once enabled, the sampler will automatically assign a priority of 0 or 1 to traces, depending on their service and volume.
You can also set this priority manually to either drop a non-interesting trace or to keep an important one. For that, set the TraceOperation#sampling_priority
to:
Datadog::Tracing::Sampling::Ext::Priority::USER_REJECT
: the user asked to reject the trace.Datadog::Tracing::Sampling::Ext::Priority::USER_KEEP
: the user asked to keep the trace.When not using distributed tracing, you may change the priority at any time, as long as the trace incomplete. But it has to be done before any context propagation (fork, RPC calls) to be useful in a distributed context. Changing the priority after the context has been propagated causes different parts of a distributed trace to use different priorities. Some parts might be kept, some parts might be rejected, and this can cause the trace to be partially stored and remain incomplete.
For this reason, if you change the priority, we recommend you do it as early as possible.
To change the sampling priority, you can use the following methods:
# Rejects the active trace
Datadog::Tracing.reject!
# Keeps the active trace
Datadog::Tracing.keep!
It’s safe to use Datadog::Tracing.reject!
and Datadog::Tracing.keep!
when no trace is active.
You can also reject a specific trace instance:
# First, grab the active trace
trace = Datadog::Tracing.active_trace
# Rejects the trace
trace.reject!
# Keeps the trace
trace.keep!
You can configure sampling rule that allow you keep spans despite their respective traces being dropped by a trace-level sampling rule.
This allows you to keep important spans when trace-level sampling is applied. Is is not possible to drop spans using Single Span Sampling.
To configure it, see the Ingestion Mechanisms documentation.
It’s possible to configure a completely custom sampling strategy.
When possible, avoid using custom sampling, and instead use the Priority sampling API alongside the sampling options provided in Additional Configuration. This will ensure the highest level of maintainability and the debuggability of your sampling decisions.
When custom sampling is required, there are two possible strategies:
Priority sampling, which is the recommended sampling strategy and supports all post-ingestion sampling configurations and reports.
Application-side, which can completely prevent a span from being flushed from the Ruby process, but it prevents post-ingestion sampling from receiving the data necessary to work correctly.
This strategy should only be used when the gains in performance and bandwidth reduction are essential to the system.
If you are use application-side sampling, please let us know by opening an issue on GitHub, so we can better understand and support your use case.
You can configure Custom sampling by creating a Ruby object that responds to the methods sample!
and sample_rate
:
class CustomSampler
# Sets the trace sampling status.
#
# This method *may* modify the `trace`, in case changes are necessary based on the
# sampling decision (e.g. adding trace tags).
#
# @param [Datadog::Tracing::TraceOperation] trace
# @return [void]
def sample!(trace)
# Implement one of the two sampling strategies to record the sampling decision:
#
# 1. Priority sampling. Ingestion Controls page will be accurate.
# a. Keep span with priority sampling.
trace.keep!
# b. or drop span with priority sampling.
trace.reject!
# Or
# 2. Do not flush span. Ingestion Controls page will be **inaccurate**.
# Can save processing time and bandwidth.
# a. Flush the span
trace.sampled = true
# b. Do not flush the span
trace.sampled = false
end
# The sampling rate, if this sampler has such concept. Otherwise, `nil`.
#
# @param [Datadog::Tracing::TraceOperation] trace
# @return [Float,nil] sampling ratio between 0.0 and 1.0 (inclusive), or `nil` if not applicable
def sample_rate(trace)
# ...
end
end
Datadog.configure do |c|
c.tracing.sampler = CustomSampler.new
end
See Additional Configuration for all other sampling options.
Distributed tracing allows traces to be propagated across multiple instrumented applications so that a request can be presented as a single trace, rather than a separate trace per service.
To trace requests across application boundaries, the following must be propagated between each application:
Property | Type | Description |
---|---|---|
Trace ID | Integer | ID of the trace. This value should be the same across all requests that belong to the same trace. |
Parent Span ID | Integer | ID of the span in the service originating the request. This value will always be different for each request within a trace. |
Sampling Priority | Integer | Sampling priority level for the trace. This value should be the same across all requests that belong to the same trace. |
Such propagation can be visualized as:
Service A:
Trace ID: 100000000000000001
Parent ID: 0
Span ID: 100000000000000123
Priority: 1
|
| Service B Request:

Span ID: 100000000000000456
Priority: 1

Priority: 1
Via HTTP
For HTTP requests between instrumented applications, this trace metadata is propagated by use of HTTP Request headers:
Property | Type | HTTP Header name |
---|---|---|
Trace ID | Integer | x-datadog-trace-id |
Parent Span ID | Integer | x-datadog-parent-id |
Sampling Priority | Integer | x-datadog-sampling-priority |
Such that:
Service A:
Trace ID: 100000000000000001
Parent ID: 0
Span ID: 100000000000000123
Priority: 1
|
| Service B HTTP Request:

Tracing supports the following distributed trace formats:
datadog
tracecontext
: W3C Trace Contextb3multi
: B3 multiple-headersb3
: B3 single-headernone
: No-op.You can enable/disable the use of these formats via Datadog.configure
:
Datadog.configure do |c|
# List of header formats that should be extracted
c.tracing.propagation_style_extract = [ 'tracecontext', 'datadog', 'b3' ]
# List of header formats that should be injected
c.tracing.propagation_style_inject = [ 'tracecontext', 'datadog' ]
end
Activating distributed tracing for integrations
Many integrations included in datadog
support distributed tracing. Distributed tracing is enabled by default in Agent v7 and most versions of Agent v6. If needed, you can activate distributed tracing with configuration settings.
For more details on how to activate distributed tracing for integrations, see their documentation:
To make the process of propagating this metadata easier, you can use the Datadog::Tracing::Contrib::HTTP
module.
On the client:
Datadog::Tracing.trace('web.call') do |span, trace|
# Inject trace headers into request headers (`env` must be a Hash)
Datadog::Tracing::Contrib::HTTP.inject(trace.to_digest, env)
end
On the server:
trace_digest = Datadog::Tracing::Contrib::HTTP.extract(request.env)
Datadog::Tracing.trace('web.work', continue_from: trace_digest) do |span|
# Do web work...
end
Traces that originate from HTTP requests can be configured to include the time spent in a frontend web server or load balancer queue before the request reaches the Ruby application.
This feature is disabled by default. To activate it, you must add an X-Request-Start
or X-Queue-Start
header from your web server (i.e., Nginx) before enabling the request queuing feature. The following is an Nginx configuration example:
# /etc/nginx/conf.d/ruby_service.conf
server {
listen 8080;
location / {
proxy_set_header X-Request-Start "t=${msec}";
proxy_pass http://web:3000;
}
}
For Rack-based applications, see the documentation for details.
Some applications might require that traces be altered or filtered out before they are sent to Datadog. The processing pipeline allows you to create processors to define such behavior.
You can use the Datadog::Tracing::Pipeline::SpanFilter
processor to remove spans, when the block evaluates as truthy:
Datadog::Tracing.before_flush(
# Remove spans that match a particular resource
Datadog::Tracing::Pipeline::SpanFilter.new { |span| span.resource =~ /PingController/ },
# Remove spans that are trafficked to localhost
Datadog::Tracing::Pipeline::SpanFilter.new { |span| span.get_tag('host') == 'localhost' }
)
You can use the Datadog::Tracing::Pipeline::SpanProcessor
processor to modify spans:
Datadog::Tracing.before_flush(
# Strip matching text from the resource field
Datadog::Tracing::Pipeline::SpanProcessor.new { |span| span.resource.gsub!(/password=.*/, '') }
)
Processors can be any object that responds to #call
accepting trace
as an argument (which is an Array
of Datadog::Span
s.)
For example, using the short-hand block syntax:
Datadog::Tracing.before_flush do |trace|
# Processing logic...
trace
end
For a custom processor class:
class MyCustomProcessor
def call(trace)
# Processing logic...
trace
end
end
Datadog::Tracing.before_flush(MyCustomProcessor.new)
In both cases, the processor method must return the trace
object; this return value will be passed to the next processor in the pipeline.
In many cases, such as logging, it may be useful to correlate trace IDs to other events or data streams, for easier cross-referencing.
For Rails applications using the default logger (ActiveSupport::TaggedLogging
), lograge
, or semantic_logger
, trace correlation injection is enabled by default.
It can be disabled by setting the environment variable DD_LOGS_INJECTION=false
.
lograge
, disable ActiveSupport::TaggedLogging
to prevent plain-text TaggedLogging
tags from polluting the log lines.To disable ActiveSupport::TaggedLogging
, in your Rails configuration, set:
config.logger = ActiveSupport::Logger.new(STDOUT)
config.active_job.logger = ActiveSupport::Logger.new(STDOUT)
This is not necessary when using semantic_logger
.
To add correlation IDs to your logger, add a log formatter which retrieves the correlation IDs with Datadog::Tracing.correlation
, then add them to the message.
To properly correlate with Datadog logging, be sure the following is present in the log message, in order as they appear:
dd.env=<ENV>
: Where <ENV>
is equal to Datadog::Tracing.correlation.env
. Omit if no environment is configured.dd.service=<SERVICE>
: Where <SERVICE>
is equal to Datadog::Tracing.correlation.service
. Omit if no default service name is configured.dd.version=<VERSION>
: Where <VERSION>
is equal to Datadog::Tracing.correlation.version
. Omit if no application version is configured.dd.trace_id=<TRACE_ID>
: Where <TRACE_ID>
is equal to Datadog::Tracing.correlation.trace_id
or 0
if no trace is active during logging.dd.span_id=<SPAN_ID>
: Where <SPAN_ID>
is equal to Datadog::Tracing.correlation.span_id
or 0
if no trace is active during logging.Datadog::Tracing.log_correlation
will return dd.env=<ENV> dd.service=<SERVICE> dd.version=<VERSION> dd.trace_id=<TRACE_ID> dd.span_id=<SPAN_ID>
.
If a trace is not active and the application environment & version is not configured, it will return dd.env= dd.service= dd.version= dd.trace_id=0 dd.span_id=0
.
An example of this in practice:
require 'datadog'
require 'logger'
ENV['DD_ENV'] = 'production'
ENV['DD_SERVICE'] = 'billing-api'
ENV['DD_VERSION'] = '2.5.17'
logger = Logger.new(STDOUT)
logger.progname = 'my_app'
logger.formatter = proc do |severity, datetime, progname, msg|
"[#{datetime}][#{progname}][#{severity}][#{Datadog::Tracing.log_correlation}] #{msg}\n"
end
# When no trace is active
logger.warn('This is an untraced operation.')
# [2019-01-16 18:38:41 +0000][my_app][WARN][dd.env=production dd.service=billing-api dd.version=2.5.17 dd.trace_id=0 dd.span_id=0] This is an untraced operation.
# When a trace is active
Datadog::Tracing.trace('my.operation') { logger.warn('This is a traced operation.') }
# [2019-01-16 18:38:41 +0000][my_app][WARN][dd.env=production dd.service=billing-api dd.version=2.5.17 dd.trace_id=8545847825299552251 dd.span_id=3711755234730770098] This is a traced operation.
By default, datadog
will connect to the Agent using the first available settings in the listed priority:
/var/run/datadog/apm.socket
127.0.0.1:8126
However, the tracer can be configured to send its trace data to alternative destinations, or by alternative protocols.
To change the Agent host or port, provide DD_AGENT_HOST
and DD_TRACE_AGENT_PORT
.
OR within a Datadog.configure
block, provide the following settings:
Datadog.configure do |c|
c.agent.host = '127.0.0.1'
c.agent.port = 8126
end
See Additional Configuration for more details.
The agent supports communication via TCP or Unix Domain Socket (UDS). The tracer will automatically detect the agent’s connection method based on the configuration provided.
The tracer will connect to the agent via TCP if the host
and port
are set, or if HTTP/HTTPS
is specified as the
protocol in DD_TRACE_AGENT_URL
. TCP is the default connection method.
To use, first configure your trace Agent to listen by Unix socket, then configure the tracer with:
Datadog.configure do |c|
# Provide local path to trace Agent Unix socket
c.agent.uds_path = '/tmp/ddagent/trace.sock'
end
You can also define the UDS path using the DD_TRACE_AGENT_URL
environment variable by setting the protocol to unix
:
DD_TRACE_AGENT_URL=unix:///tmp/ddagent/trace.sock
Note: You cannot mix UDS and TCP configurations. If you set c.agent.uds_path
, you must not set c.agent.host
or c.agent.port
.
When test mode is enabled, the tracer uses a Test
adapter for no-op transport that can optionally buffer requests in
test suites or other non-production environments. It is configured by setting c.tracing.test_mode.enabled
to true.
This mode only works for tracing.
Datadog.configure do |c|
c.tracing.test_mode.enabled = true
end
By default, tracing uses a monotonic clock to measure the duration of spans, and timestamps (->{ Time.now }
) for the start and end time.
When testing, it might be helpful to use a different time provider.
To change the function that provides timestamps, configure the following:
Datadog.configure do |c|
# For Timecop, for example, `->{ Time.now_without_mock_time }` allows the tracer to use the real wall time.
c.time_now_provider = -> { Time.now_without_mock_time }
end
Span duration calculation will still use the system monotonic clock when available, thus not being affected by this setting.
The tracer and its integrations can produce some additional metrics that can provide useful insight into the performance of your application. These metrics are collected with dogstatsd-ruby
, and can be sent to the same Datadog agent to which you send your traces.
To configure your application for metrics collection:
gem 'dogstatsd-ruby', '~> 5.3'
to your GemfileIf runtime metrics are configured, the trace library will automatically collect and send metrics about the health of your application.
To configure runtime metrics, add the following configuration:
# config/initializers/datadog.rb
require 'datadog/statsd'
require 'datadog'
Datadog.configure do |c|
# To enable runtime metrics collection, set `true`. Defaults to `false`
# You can also set DD_RUNTIME_METRICS_ENABLED=true to configure this.
c.runtime_metrics.enabled = true
# Optionally, you can configure the Statsd instance used for sending runtime metrics.
# Statsd is automatically configured with default settings if `dogstatsd-ruby` is available.
# You can configure with host and port of Datadog Agent; defaults to 'localhost:8125'.
c.runtime_metrics.statsd = Datadog::Statsd.new
end
See the Dogstatsd documentation for more details about configuring Datadog::Statsd
.
The stats are VM specific and will include:
Name | Type | Description | Available on |
---|---|---|---|
runtime.ruby.class_count | gauge | Number of classes in memory space. | CRuby |
runtime.ruby.gc.* | gauge | Garbage collection statistics: collected from GC.stat . | All runtimes |
runtime.ruby.yjit.* | gauge | YJIT statistics collected from RubyVM::YJIT.runtime_stats . | CRuby (if enabled) |
runtime.ruby.thread_count | gauge | Number of threads. | All runtimes |
runtime.ruby.global_constant_state | gauge | Global constant cache generation. | CRuby ≤ 3.1 |
runtime.ruby.global_method_state | gauge | Global method cache generation. | CRuby 2.x |
runtime.ruby.constant_cache_invalidations | gauge | Constant cache invalidations. | CRuby ≥ 3.2 |
runtime.ruby.constant_cache_misses | gauge | Constant cache misses. | CRuby ≥ 3.2 |
In addition, all metrics include the following tags:
Name | Description |
---|---|
language | Programming language traced. (e.g. ruby ) |
service | List of services this associated with this metric. |
datadog
can produce profiles that measure method-level application resource usage within production environments. These profiles can give insight into resources spent in Ruby code outside of existing trace instrumentation.
Setup
To get started with profiling, follow the Enabling the Ruby Profiler guide.
If you run into issues with profiling, please check the Profiler Troubleshooting Guide.
When profiling Resque jobs, you should set the RUN_AT_EXIT_HOOKS=1
option described in the Resque documentation.
Without this flag, profiles for short-lived Resque jobs will not be available as Resque kills worker processes before they have a chance to submit this information.
By default, Datadog limits the size of trace payloads to prevent memory overhead within instrumented applications. As a result, traces containing thousands of operations may not be sent to Datadog.
If traces are missing, enable debug mode to check if messages containing "Dropping trace. Payload too large"
are logged.
Since debug mode is verbose, Datadog does not recommend leaving this enabled or enabling this in production. Disable it after confirming. You can inspect the Datadog Agent logs for similar messages.
If you have confirmed that traces are dropped due to large payloads, then enable the partial_flush setting to break down large traces into smaller chunks.
Datadog tracing collects trace data by adding instrumentation into other common libraries (e.g. Rails, Rack, etc.) Some libraries provide APIs to add this instrumentation, but some do not. In order to add instrumentation into libraries lacking an instrumentation API, Datadog uses a technique called “monkey-patching” to modify the code of that library.
In Ruby version 1.9.3 and earlier, “monkey-patching” often involved the use of alias_method
, also known as method rewriting, to destructively replace existing Ruby methods. However, this practice would often create conflicts & errors if two libraries attempted to “rewrite” the same method. (e.g. two different APM packages trying to instrument the same method.)
In Ruby 2.0, the Module#prepend
feature was introduced. This feature avoids destructive method rewriting and allows multiple “monkey patches” on the same method. Consequently, it has become the safest, preferred means to “monkey patch” code.
Datadog instrumentation almost exclusively uses the Module#prepend
feature to add instrumentation non-destructively. However, some other libraries (typically those supporting Ruby < 2.0) still use alias_method
which can create conflicts with Datadog instrumentation, often resulting in SystemStackError
or stack level too deep
errors.
As the implementation of alias_method
exists within those libraries, Datadog generally cannot fix them. However, some libraries have known workarounds:
rack-mini-profiler
: Net::HTTP stack level too deep errors.For libraries without a known workaround, consider removing the library using alias
or Module#alias_method
or separating libraries into different environments for testing.
For any further questions or to report an occurrence of this issue, please reach out to Datadog support
Resque’s default of forking a process per job can, in rare situations, result in resque processes hanging on exit when instrumented with datadog
.
As a workaround, we recommend setting the FORK_PER_JOB
environment variable to false
to disable this behavior.
See this issue for a discussion of the problem.
