Cohere Observability

Overview

Set up production observability for Cohere API v2 with Prometheus metrics, OpenTelemetry tracing, and AlertManager rules. Tracks per-endpoint latency, token usage, error rates, and costs.

Prerequisites

• Prometheus or compatible metrics backend
• OpenTelemetry SDK installed
• cohere-ai SDK v7+

Instructions

Step 1: Metrics Collection

import { Registry, Counter, Histogram, Gauge } from 'prom-client';

const registry = new Registry();

// Per-endpoint request counter
const requestCounter = new Counter({
  name: 'cohere_requests_total',
  help: 'Total Cohere API requests',
  labelNames: ['endpoint', 'model', 'status'],
  registers: [registry],
});

// Latency histogram
const requestDuration = new Histogram({
  name: 'cohere_request_duration_seconds',
  help: 'Cohere request duration',
  labelNames: ['endpoint', 'model'],
  buckets: [0.1, 0.25, 0.5, 1, 2.5, 5, 10, ],
  : [registry],
});


 tokenCounter =  ({
  : ,
  : ,
  : [, , ], 
  : [registry],
});


 errorCounter =  ({
  : ,
  : ,
  : [, ],
  : [registry],
});


 rateLimitGauge =  ({
  : ,
  : ,
  : [],
  : [registry],
});
