PROFILE
Suzy Wang
Worked on the Kong/kong repository to enhance observability and distributed tracing capabilities in API gateway environments. Developed a feature for the OpenTelemetry plugin that enables dynamic resource attributes for traces and logs, allowing attributes to be derived from request headers and validated through schema checks. Built comprehensive tests to ensure reliability and maintainability. Additionally, implemented Instana tracing header propagation by creating extractor and injector modules, updating configuration schemas, and adding unit and integration tests to verify correct trace and span ID handling. Utilized Lua for plugin development, focusing on backend development, distributed tracing, and robust telemetry integration throughout the process.
