How do I enforce policy-as-code for Tracing sampling using OPA and Conftest?

In order to enforce policy-as-code for tracing sampling in your applications using Open Policy Agent (OPA) and Conftest, you can define specific rules that govern the allowable sampling rates for tracing events. This ensures consistency and adherence to your organization's tracing policies.

Here is an example of how you might implement this:


        package trace

        # Define a rule for enforcing the sampling rate
        default allow = false

        # Allow if the sampling rate is within permitted limits
        allow {
            input.sampling_rate >= 0
            input.sampling_rate <= 100
        }
