-### Tracing
-
-The SDK is set up to trace all gRPC communications:
-* All outgoing messages bear trace metadata, allowing correlation with peers.
-* Each request/response is computed as a span.
-* If you use OpenTelemetry in your program, the gRPC span will correlate using the thread local context to the parent context.
