# Semantic conventions for tracing compatibility components
|
|
|
|
**Status**: [Development][DocumentStatus]
|
|
|
|
This document defines trace semantic conventions used by the
|
|
compatibility components, e.g. OpenTracing Shim layer.

## OpenTracing
|
|
|
|
`Link`s created by the OpenTracing Shim MUST set `opentracing.ref_type`
|
|
with one of the accepted values, describing the direct causal relationships
|
|
between a child Span and a parent Span, as defined by
|
|
[OpenTracing](https://github.com/opentracing/specification/blob/master/specification.md).

**[1] `opentracing.ref_type`:** The causal relationship between a child Span and a parent Span.

|
|
|
|
`opentracing.ref_type` has the following list of well-known values. If one of them applies, then the respective value MUST be used; otherwise, a custom value MAY be used.
|
|
|
|
| Value | Description | Stability |
|
|
|---|---|---|
|
|
| `child_of` | The parent Span depends on the child Span in some capacity |  |
|
|
| `follows_from` | The parent Span doesn't depend in any way on the result of the child Span |  |
