AI Observability and Sensitive Data
AI debugging wants prompts and tool results, which are the most sensitive data a request holds. This guide shows what to record by default, how far redaction can be trusted, and how to control access.

Head sampling decides whether to keep a trace before it has run; tail sampling decides after it has collected the trace’s spans for a bounded wait. The choice determines which failures you can find and how far you can trust the rates you compute.
Telemetry only helps if it carries context, stays affordable, and respects privacy. This article instruments a service with OpenTelemetry and examines cardinality, sampling, propagation, and redaction choices.
