more in depth change that requires full team approval
We have a AWS ECS cluster which runs the Datadog agent and our services which are monitored with Datadog. We're using the
DD_TAGS
environment variable to set a couple of tags. We want these tags on the infrastructure hosts (which are set by the agent) and on all of our traces (which are set by this dd-trace-go package).The agent requires these tags to be space separated but dd-trace-go requires them to be comma separated. I suggest making this consistent and thus making
DD_TAGS
space separated.In our case it's quite cumbersome to pass a different
DD_TAGS
value to different containers within ECS so we would just like to use the sameDD_TAGS
variable across all our containers.Removing comma separation would be a breaking change so it would probably be wise to keep supporting that and split both on commas and spaces
