    "metrics_export_interval": 15,  # Fast updates
    "enable_console_export": True,
    "log_level": "DEBUG"
}

# Production
{
    "trace_sampling_ratio": 0.1,  # 10% sampling
    "metrics_export_interval": 60,  # Optimized intervals
    "enable_console_export": False,
    "log_level": "INFO"
}

Usage Examples

1. Basic FastAPI Integration

from fastapi import FastAPI
from monitoring.instrumentation.otel_config import initialize_otel
from monitoring.metrics.prometheus_middleware import setup_prometheus_instrumentation

app = FastAPI()

# Initialize OpenTelemetry
otel_config = initialize_otel(app, environment="production")

# Setup Prometheus metrics
instrumentator = setup_prometheus_instrumentation(
    app=app,
    metrics_endpoint="/metrics",

2. GraphMemory Operation Tracing

from monitoring.instrumentation.graphmemory_tracer import (
    get_graphmemory_instrumentor, NodeOperation
)

instrumentor = get_graphmemory_instrumentor()

# Trace node creation
operation = NodeOperation(
    node_id="node_123",
    operation_type="create",
    node_type="concept",
    user_id="user_456",
    session_id="session_789"
)

with instrumentor.trace_node_operation(operation) as span:
    # Perform node creation logic
    result = create_memory_node(operation.node_id, operation.node_type)
    span.set_attribute("node.created", True)

3. Custom Metrics Recording

from monitoring.metrics.prometheus_middleware import GraphMemoryPrometheusMiddleware

# Access middleware instance
middleware = instrumentator.get_middleware()

# Record custom operation
middleware.record_graphmemory_operation(
    operation_type="search",
    node_type="concept",
    user_id="user_456",
    duration=0.125,
    success=True
)

# Update memory statistics
middleware.update_memory_stats(
    total_nodes=1250,
    total_relationships=3420
)
