It captures logs, metrics, traces, and performance counters and sends them to Azure Monitor for centralized observability. The package integrates with Python's standard logging module and OpenCensus's stats and tracing APIs, allowing developers to emit telemetry without rewriting application code.\n\nThe package depends on azure-core, azure-identity, opencensus, psutil, and requests. However, it is no longer maintained\u2014the repository was archived and the package reached end-of-support in September 2024. The maintainers explicitly recommend migrating to the Azure Monitor OpenTelemetry exporters or the Azure Monitor OpenTelemetry Distro for new projects.","worth_installing":"No. The package is abandoned and officially unsupported since September 2024. While it has low install friction and no known vulnerabilities, the maintainers explicitly recommend migrating to Azure Monitor OpenTelemetry exporters instead. Use this package only if you are maintaining legacy code already dependent on it; for new projects, adopt the OpenTelemetry-based solution."},"id":"opencensus-ext-azure","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/opencensus-ext-azure","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/opencensus-ext-azure.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/opencensus-ext-azure/"},"maintenance":{"status":"abandoned"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2025-06-03","license_spdx":null,"license_treatment":"permissive","name":"opencensus-ext-azure","python_support":"unspecified","summary":"OpenCensus Azure Monitor Exporter"},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":11066198,"position":1419,"tier":"top_5000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"1.1.15"}
