Abstract
In some aspects, data collection functions are interposed to generate input data for an observability pipeline system. In some aspects, a data collection function is made available to an application running on a computer system, with the data collection function having the same name as an original function referenced by the application. In response to a call to the original function, the data collection function is executed and data is extracted from the application. The original function is then executed. A reporting thread of the application is executed; executing the reporting thread generates observability pipeline input data by formatting the extracted data and sends the observability pipeline input data from the computer system to an observability pipeline system.
