-
-**Example:**
-```python
-from opentelemetry import trace
-
-tracer = trace.get_tracer(__name__)
-
-@tracer.start_as_current_span("process_order")
-def process_order(order_id):
-    span = trace.get_current_span()
-    span.set_attribute("order.id", order_id)
-    span.set_attribute("order.amount", amount)
-    
-    # Business logic
-    result = do_processing()
-    
-    span.set_attribute("order.status", result.status)
-    return result
-```
-
-## Best Practices
-
-### 1. Sampling Strategy
-
-**Head-based Sampling:**
-- Sample at trace start
-- Consistent per trace
-- Good for debugging
-
-**Tail-based Sampling:**
-- Sample after trace completes
-- Prioritize errors/slow traces
-- Better cost optimization
-
-### 2. Performance Impact
-
-**Minimize Overhead:**
-- Use sampling
-- Async instrumentation
-- Batch exports
-- Profile impact
-
-### 3. Data Retention
-
-**Tiered Retention:**
-- Raw data: 7 days
-- Aggregated: 30 days
-- Metrics: 1 year
-- Based on use case
-
-### 4. Correlation
-
-**Correlate Across Signals:**
-- Traces + metrics
-- Logs + traces
-- Errors + traces
-- User sessions + traces
-
-### 5. Alerting
-
-**Alert on:**
-- Error rate spikes
-- Latency degradation
-- Throughput drops
-- SLO violations
-
-**Don't Alert on:**
-- Single errors
-- Expected failures
-- Spikes without context
-
-## Monitoring Strategy
-
-### Application Metrics
-
-**Key Metrics:**
-- Request rate (RPS)
-- Error rate (%)
-- Latency (p50, p95, p99)
-- Throughput
-
-### Database Metrics
-
-**Key Metrics:**
-- Query duration
-- Connection pool usage
-- Slow queries
-- Error rate
-
-### Infrastructure Metrics
-
-**Key Metrics:**
-- CPU utilization
-- Memory usage
-- Network I/O
-- Disk I/O
-
-### Business Metrics
-
-**Key Metrics:**
-- Transaction volume
-- Revenue per transaction
-- Conversion rates
-- User activity
