Description

Metrics for grpc are outlined [here](https://grpc.io/docs/guides/opentelemetry-metrics/)

Is there a reason why this has not been implemented?

Generally all languages follow a standardization, but it looks like [EventCounter](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/aspnet/core/grpc/diagnostics?view=aspnetcore-8.0#:~:text=Metrics%20is%20a%20representation%20of%20data%20measures%20over%20intervals%20of%20time%2C%20for%20example%2C%20requests%20per%20second.%20Metrics%20data%20allows%20observation%20of%20the%20state%20of%20an%20app%20at%20a%20high%20level.%20.NET%20gRPC%20metrics%20are%20emitted%20using%20EventCounter.) has been used instead

Research direction

Start by comparing the gRPC OpenTelemetry metrics guide with the repository’s existing EventCounter-based metrics, whose implementation location is not identified in the issue. Determine the missing scope and expected metric behavior before proposing implementation, then validate the result against the documented standard.
