SkyAPM-dotnet is an open-source auto-instrumentation agent for .NET and ASP.NET Core applications that provides distributed tracing, service topology, and metrics. It reports telemetry to an Apache SkyWalking backend over the sw8/v8 protocol via gRPC or Kafka transports.
Use cases
- add distributed tracing to ASP.NET Core apps
- monitor .NET microservices with SkyWalking
- visualize service topology across .NET services
- collect metrics from .NET applications
- trace requests across microservices
- instrument .NET apps without code changes
When to choose
- you use Apache SkyWalking as your APM backend
- you need auto-instrumentation for ASP.NET Core or .NET hosts
- you want distributed tracing, topology, and metrics with minimal code changes
When to avoid
- you use a different APM backend like Jaeger or Datadog
- you need OpenTelemetry-native instrumentation
- your runtime is not net8.0 or net10.0
