Semantic Conventions for MSSQL

Status: Experimental

The Semantic Conventions for the Microsoft SQL Server extend and override the Database Semantic Conventions that describe common database operations attributes in addition to the Semantic Conventions described on this page.

db.system MUST be set to "mssql".

Connection-level attributes
