The update requires a change to the implementation and test update as follows:

  • In otel 0.18.0, processor factories had a with_memory(bool) method which we were using when building our prometheus exporter. AFAICT, this used to be a mechanism for controlling how metrics handled stale gauges. In 0.19.0, this method was removed and now gauges are all assumed to be as though they were created with false. We had been providing true on our call. I'm not 100% certain of the impact of this change, but it appears that we can ignore it. We may need to consider it more carefully if problems arise.
  • There are now two standard OTEL attributes: otel_scope_name="apollo/router",otel_scope_version="" added to output and a number of tests had to be updated to accommodate that change.
  • One of our tests appeared to be searching for apollo_router_cache_hit_count (and this was working) when it should have been searching for apollo_router_cache_hit_count_total (likewise for miss). I've updated the test and think this is the correct thing to do. It looks like a bug was fixed in otel and this change matches the fix.

Regarding that last point. The prometheus spec mandates naming format and the change was part of the compliance with that spec. This PR made the change: open-telemetry/opentelemetry-rust#952

The two affected counters in the router were:

apollo_router_cache_hit_count -> apollo_router_cache_hit_count_total
apollo_router_cache_miss_count -> apollo_router_cache_miss_count_total

It's good that our prometheus metrics are now spec compliant, but we should note this in the release notes and (if possible) somewhere in our documentation. I'll add it to the changeset at least.

The upgrade fixes many of the outstanding issues related to opentelemetry and various APM vendors:

## 🚀 Features

### Add support for delta aggregation to otlp metrics ([PR
#3412](#3412))

Add a new configuration option (Temporality) to the otlp metrics
configuration.

This may be useful to fix problems with metrics when being processed by
datadog which tends to expect Delta, rather than Cumulative,
aggregations.

See:
-
open-telemetry/opentelemetry-collector-contrib#6129
 - DataDog/documentation#15840

for more details.

## 🐛 Fixes

### Fix error handling for subgraphs ([Issue
#3141](#3141))

The GraphQL spec is rather light on what should happen when we process
responses from subgraphs. The current behaviour within the Router was
inconsistently short circuiting response processing and this producing
confusing errors.
> #### Processing the response
> 
> If the response uses a non-200 status code and the media type of the
response payload is application/json then the client MUST NOT rely on
the body to be a well-formed GraphQL response since the source of the
response may not be the server but instead some intermediary such as API
gateways, proxies, firewalls, etc.

The logic has been simplified and made consistent using the following
rules:
1. If the content type of the response is not `application/json` or
`application/graphql-response+json` then we won't try to parse.
2. If an HTTP status is not 2xx it will always be attached as a graphql
error.
3. If the response type is `application/json` and status is not 2xx and
the body is not valid grapqhql the entire subgraph response will be
attached as an error.

## 🛠 Maintenance

### chore: router-bridge 0.3.0+v2.4.8 -> =0.3.1+2.4.9 ([PR
#3407](#3407))

Updates `router-bridge` from ` = "0.3.0+v2.4.8"` to ` = "0.3.1+v2.4.9"`,
note that with this PR, this dependency is now pinned to an exact
version. This version update started failing tests because of a minor
ordering change and it was not immediately clear why the test was
failing. Pinning this dependency (that we own) allows us to only bring
in the update at the proper time and will make test failures caused by
the update to be more easily identified.

### remove the compiler from Query ([Issue
#3373](#3373))

The `Query` object caches information extracted from the query that is
used to format responses. It was carrying an `ApolloCompiler` instance,
but now we don't really need it anymore, since it is now cached at the
query analysis layer. We also should not carry it in the supergraph
request and execution request, because that makes the builders hard to
manipulate for plugin authors. Since we are not exposing the compiler in
the public API yet, we move it inside the context's private entries,
where it will be easily accessible from internal code.

### move AllowOnlyHttpPostMutationsLayer at the supergraph service level
([PR #3374](#3374), [PR
#3410](#3410))

Now that we have access to a compiler in supergraph requests, we don't
need to look into the query plan to know if a request contains mutations

### update opentelemetry to 0.19.0 ([Issue
#2878](#2878))


We've updated the following opentelemetry related crates:

```
opentelemetry 0.18.0 -> 0.19.0
opentelemetry-datadog 0.6.0 -> 0.7.0
opentelemetry-http 0.7.0 -> 0.8.0
opentelemetry-jaeger 0.17.0 -> 0.18.0
opentelemetry-otlp 0.11.0 -> 0.12.0
opentelemetry-semantic-conventions 0.10.0 -> 0.11.0
opentelemetry-zipkin 0.16.0 -> 0.17.0
opentelemetry-prometheus 0.11.0 -> 0.12.0
tracing-opentelemetry 0.18.0 -> 0.19.0
```

This allows us to close a number of opentelemetry related issues.

Note:

The prometheus specification mandates naming format and, unfortunately,
the router had two metrics which weren't compliant. The otel upgrade
enforces the specification, so the affected metrics are now renamed (see
below).

The two affected metrics in the router were:

apollo_router_cache_hit_count -> apollo_router_cache_hit_count_total
apollo_router_cache_miss_count -> apollo_router_cache_miss_count_total

If you are monitoring these metrics via prometheus, please update your
dashboards with this name change.

### Synthesize defer labels without RNG or collisions ([PR
#3381](#3381) and [PR
#3423](#3423))

The `@defer` directive accepts a `label` argument, but it is optional.
To more accurately handle deferred responses, the Router internally
rewrites queries to add labels on the `@defer` directive where they are
missing. Responses eventually receive the reverse treatment to look as
expected by client.

This was done be generating random strings, handling collision with
existing labels, and maintaining a `HashSet` of which labels had been
synthesized. Instead, we now add a prefix to pre-existing labels and
generate new labels without it. When processing a response, the absence
of that prefix indicates a synthetic label.

### Move subscription event execution at the execution service level
([PR #3395](#3395))

In order to prepare some future integration I moved the execution loop
for subscription events at the execution_service level.

## 📚 Documentation

### Document claim augmentation via coprocessors ([Issue
#3102](#3102))

Claims augmentation is a common use case where user information from the
JWT claims is used to look up more context like roles from databases,
before sending it to subgraphs. This can be done with subgraphs, but it
was not documented yet, and there was confusion on the order in which
the plugins were called. This clears the confusion and provides an
example configuration.
