Langfuse Reference Architecture
Overview
Production-grade architecture patterns for Langfuse LLM observability: singleton SDK, context propagation with AsyncLocalStorage, cross-service trace correlation, multi-environment configurations, and scale strategies.
Prerequisites
Understanding of distributed systems and async patterns
Node.js 18+ with OpenTelemetry SDK
For v4+: @langfuse/tracing, @langfuse/otel, @opentelemetry/sdk-node
Architecture Tiers
Tier Scale Architecture Langfuse Host Starter < 100K traces/day Direct SDK, Cloud Langfuse Cloud Growth 100K-1M traces/day Singleton + batching Cloud or Self-hosted Enterprise 1M+ traces/day Queue-buffered + sampling Self-hosted (HA)
Instructions
Pattern 1: Singleton SDK with Context Propagation
import { LangfuseClient } from "@langfuse/client" ;
import { LangfuseSpanProcessor } from "@langfuse/otel" ;
import { NodeSDK } from "@opentelemetry/sdk-node" ;
import { AsyncLocalStorage } from "async_hooks" ;
let sdk : NodeSDK | null = null ;

Pattern 2: Express Middleware for Automatic Tracing
import { startActiveObservation, updateActiveObservation } from "@langfuse/tracing" ;
import { runWithContext, getRequestContext } from "../lib/tracing" ;
import { randomUUID } from "crypto" ;
import type { Request , Response , NextFunction } from "express" ;
export function langfuseMiddleware (return (req : Request , res : Response , next : NextFunction {
const ctx = {
requestId : req.headers ["x-request-id" ]?.toString () || randomUUID (),
userId : req.headers ["x-user-id" ]?.toString (),
sessionId : req.headers ["x-session-id" ]?.toString (),
};
runWithContext (ctx, () => {
startActiveObservation (`${req.method} ${req.path} ` , async () => {
updateActiveObservation ({
input : {
method : req.method ,
path : req.path ,
query : req.query ,
},
metadata : {
userId : ctx.userId ,
sessionId : ctx.sessionId ,
requestId : ctx.requestId ,
},
});
const originalEnd = res.end .bind (res);
res.end = function (...args : any [] ) {
updateActiveObservation ({
output : { statusCode : res.statusCode },
});
return originalEnd (...args);
} as any ;
next ();
}).catch (next);
});
};
}
import express from "express" ;
import { initTracing } from "./lib/tracing" ;
import { langfuseMiddleware } from "./middleware/tracing" ;
initTracing ();
const app = express ();
app.use (langfuseMiddleware ());
Pattern 3: Cross-Service Trace Correlation For microservices, propagate trace context via HTTP headers:
import { context, propagation } from "@opentelemetry/api" ;
async function callServiceB (data : any const headers : Record <string , string > = {};
propagation.inject (context.active (), headers);
const response = await fetch ("https://service-b.internal/api/process" , {
method : "POST" ,
headers : {
"Content-Type" : "application/json" ,
...headers,
},
body : JSON .stringify (data),
});
return response.json ();
}
import { context, propagation } from "@opentelemetry/api" ;
import { startActiveObservation, updateActiveObservation } from "@langfuse/tracing" ;
app.post ("/api/process" , async (req, res) => {
await startActiveObservation ("service-b-process" , async () => {
updateActiveObservation ({ input : req.body });
const result = await processData (req.body );
updateActiveObservation ({ output : result });
res.json (result);
});
});
Pattern 4: Multi-Environment Configuration
type Environment = "development" | "staging" | "production" ;
const configs : Record <Environment , {
exportIntervalMillis : number ;
maxExportBatchSize : number ;
sampleRate : number ;
}> = {
development : {
exportIntervalMillis : 1000 ,
maxExportBatchSize : 1 ,
sampleRate : 1.0 ,
},
staging : {
exportIntervalMillis : 5000 ,
maxExportBatchSize : 25 ,
sampleRate : 0.5 ,
},
production : {
exportIntervalMillis : 10000 ,
maxExportBatchSize : 100 ,
sampleRate : 0.1 ,
},
};
export function getTracingConfig (const env = (process.env .NODE_ENV || "development" ) as Environment ;
return configs[env] || configs.development ;
}
Pattern 5: Graceful Degradation When Langfuse is unavailable, the app must keep running:
import { observe, updateActiveObservation } from "@langfuse/tracing" ;
let tracingHealthy = true ;
let consecutiveFailures = 0 ;
const MAX_FAILURES = 10 ;
export function safeTrace<T extends (...args : any []) => Promise <any >>(
name : string ,
fn : T
): T {
return (async (...args : Parameters <T>) => {
if (!tracingHealthy) {
return fn (...args);
}
try {
const result = await observe ({ name }, async () => {
updateActiveObservation ({ input : args });
const r = await fn (...args);
updateActiveObservation ({ output : r });
return r;
})();
consecutiveFailures = 0 ;
return result;
} catch (error) {
consecutiveFailures++;
if (consecutiveFailures >= MAX_FAILURES ) {
tracingHealthy = false ;
console .error ("Langfuse tracing disabled (circuit breaker open)" );
setTimeout (() => { tracingHealthy = true ; consecutiveFailures = 0 ; }, 300000 );
}
return fn (...args);
}
}) as T;
}
