# Deriving metrics from traces
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
You can use Data Prepper to derive metrics from OpenTelemetry traces. The following example pipeline receives incoming traces and extracts a metric called `durationInNanos`, aggregated over a tumbling window of 30 seconds. It then derives a histogram from the incoming traces.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
The pipeline contains the following pipelines:
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
- `entry-pipeline` – Receives trace data from the OpenTelemetry collector and forwards it to the `trace_to_metrics_pipeline` pipeline.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
- `trace-to-metrics-pipeline` - Receives the trace data from the `entry-pipeline` pipeline, aggregates it, and derives a histogram of `durationInNanos` from the traces based on the value of the `serviceName` field. It then sends the derived metrics to the OpenSearch index called `metrics_for_traces`.
