Description

Which component is this feature for?

All Packages

🔖 Feature description

Some values, like token usage, are better reported (also) as otel metrics. We should update all instrumentations to send metrics as well as traces.

🎤 Why is this feature needed ?

More ways to use the outputted data. Observability platforms can use metrics to set alerts on or to create dashboards.

✌️ How do you aim to achieve this?

This needs to be researched and defined. Please consult on slack before starting to work on this.
