DataDog/dd-trace-go v1.73.0 on GitHub

What's Changed

Note

This is the last v1 release before the v1 transitional release v1.74.0 planned for May/June 2025. The Go tracer v1 transitional version is essentially a wrapper that preserves the API from v1 but uses v2 under the hood.

The transitional version can co-exist with v2 in the same service, which enables you to migrate services gradually. Using the v1 transitional version - starting at v1.74.0 - doesn’t require any code changes, but it also won’t support any new features of the new v2 tracer.

The v1 transitional version is planned for release in late May/early June 2025 as v1.74.0.
