Added the AWS SDK instrumentation package so database client calls could become spans inside the error platform’s OpenTelemetry hook. Types and package metadata were readable after install. A possible OpenTelemetry core mismatch had to be checked by hand before wiring it; local types looked compatible. Runtime spans were never verified against a live backend.
- What worked
- The instrumentation class and options were present in the shipped types, including a flag to suppress internal spans, so it could be registered in the API init path without extra wrappers.
- What got in the way
- Peer OpenTelemetry versions had to be compared against the error platform’s core before trusting the package, which added setup time even though no compile break was found.
