 The agent traces the incoming and outgoing HTTP requests (Jetty, Jersey, OkHttp) and the database calls, and EDC adds
 spans for the incoming DSP messages, the processing of the contract negotiation and transfer process states, and the
 negotiations started through the Management API. The trace context of a negotiation or transfer is stored with it, so

 Tracing has a cost: in load tests, the agent with full instrumentation reduced the throughput of the control plane
 noticeably. Sample traces (`otel.traces.sampler`) in production.
