# Which Problems Are Solved
There were multiple issues in the OpenTelemetry (OTEL) implementation
and usage for tracing and metrics, which lead to high cardinality and
potential memory leaks:
- wrongly initiated tracing interceptors
- high cardinality in traces:
- HTTP/1.1 endpoints containing host names
- HTTP/1.1 endpoints containing object IDs like userID (e.g.
`/management/v1/users/2352839823/`)
- high amount of traces from internal processes (spooler)
- high cardinality in metrics endpoint:
- GRPC entries containing host names
- notification metrics containing instanceIDs and error messages
# How the Problems Are Solved
- Properly initialize the interceptors once and update them to use the
grpc stats handler (unary interceptors were deprecated).
- Remove host names from HTTP/1.1 span names and use path as default.
- Set / overwrite the uri for spans on the grpc-gateway with the uri
pattern (`/management/v1/users/{user_id}`). This is used for spans in
traces and metric entries.
- Created a new sampler which will only sample spans in the following
cases:
- remote was already sampled
- remote was not sampled, root span is of kind `Server` and based on
fraction set in the runtime configuration
- This will prevent having a lot of spans from the spooler back ground
jobs if they were not started by a client call querying an object (e.g.
UserByID).
- Filter out host names and alike from OTEL generated metrics (using a
`view`).
- Removed instance and error messages from notification metrics.
# Additional Changes
Fixed the middleware handling for serving Console. Telemetry and
instance selection are only used for the environment.json, but not on
statically served files.
# Additional Context
- closes#8096
- relates to #9074
- back ports to at least 2.66.x, 2.67.x and 2.68.x
# Which Problems Are Solved
The console has no information about where and how to send PostHog
events.
# How the Problems Are Solved
A PostHog API URL and token are passed through as plain text from the
Zitadel runtime config to the environment.json. By default, no values
are configured and the keys in the environment.json are omitted.
# Additional Context
- Closes https://github.com/zitadel/zitadel/issues/9070
- Complements https://github.com/zitadel/zitadel/pull/9077
# Which Problems Are Solved
ZITADEL currently selects the instance context based on a HTTP header
(see https://github.com/zitadel/zitadel/issues/8279#issue-2399959845 and
checks it against the list of instance domains. Let's call it instance
or API domain.
For any context based URL (e.g. OAuth, OIDC, SAML endpoints, links in
emails, ...) the requested domain (instance domain) will be used. Let's
call it the public domain.
In cases of proxied setups, all exposed domains (public domains) require
the domain to be managed as instance domain.
This can either be done using the "ExternalDomain" in the runtime config
or via system API, which requires a validation through CustomerPortal on
zitadel.cloud.
# How the Problems Are Solved
- Two new headers / header list are added:
- `InstanceHostHeaders`: an ordered list (first sent wins), which will
be used to match the instance.
(For backward compatibility: the `HTTP1HostHeader`, `HTTP2HostHeader`
and `forwarded`, `x-forwarded-for`, `x-forwarded-host` are checked
afterwards as well)
- `PublicHostHeaders`: an ordered list (first sent wins), which will be
used as public host / domain. This will be checked against a list of
trusted domains on the instance.
- The middleware intercepts all requests to the API and passes a
`DomainCtx` object with the hosts and protocol into the context
(previously only a computed `origin` was passed)
- HTTP / GRPC server do not longer try to match the headers to instances
themself, but use the passed `http.DomainContext` in their interceptors.
- The `RequestedHost` and `RequestedDomain` from authz.Instance are
removed in favor of the `http.DomainContext`
- When authenticating to or signing out from Console UI, the current
`http.DomainContext(ctx).Origin` (already checked by instance
interceptor for validity) is used to compute and dynamically add a
`redirect_uri` and `post_logout_redirect_uri`.
- Gateway passes all configured host headers (previously only did
`x-zitadel-*`)
- Admin API allows to manage trusted domain
# Additional Changes
None
# Additional Context
- part of #8279
- open topics:
- "single-instance" mode
- Console UI
This pr upgrades oidc to v3 . Function signature changes have been migrated as well. Specifically there are more client calls that take a context now. Where feasable a context is added to those calls. Where a context is not (easily) available context.TODO() is used as a reminder for when it does.
