1DS C/C++ SDK

1DS C/C++ SDK enables cross-platform telemetry collection from various Microsoft products. It enables data / telemetry upload to 1DS Collector++.

Overview

One Data Strategy (1DS) is a cross-org initiative with five teams across the company coming together to unify multiple telemetry efforts at Microsoft. This includes the teams that built Asimov, Aria, Shared Data Platform, Geneva, OMS, Application Insights, and Visual Studio App Center. We aim to create a unified data production, collection, and set of tools for key scenarios for the entire company. Collector++ is the externally-facing destination end-point where data/telemetry is uploaded to that subsequently routes the data to Microsoft internal data pipeline.

We need a data culture where every engineer, every day, is looking at the
usage data, learning from that usage data, questioning what new things to
test out with our products, and being on that improvement cycle which is the
lifeblood of Microsoft...

  • Supported - these platforms are known to work well with the SDK in production.
  • Covered by CI - these platforms are tested as part of CI.

Test

There are two sets of tests available:

  • tests/unittests - unit tests that verify operation of each individual component.
  • tests/functests - functional tests that verify customer-facing APIs and features, they also cover the flow of data to Collector++.

These tests use Google Test / Google Mock framework and get built alongside the SDK. Launch functests and unittests binary executables to capture the test results.

Getting Support

We recommend GitHub issues as the communication channel for both feature requests and issues.

We are also available on email and community meeting, please refer to CONTRIBUTING.md for more details.

Note: Please refer to the supported platforms, anything not in the list should be treated as a feature request. The SDK is released as source package, there is no plan to release prebuilt binaries. Build issues are in general out of the support scope due to the unlimited number of build flags combinations.
