Maybe can refer to the similar implementation by skywalking https://github.com/apache/skywalking/tree/master/apm-sniffer/apm-sdk-plugin/thrift-plugin

Can you elaborate what kind of support are you talking about? I am not very familiar with Thrift, but uses HTTP underneath, right? So our HTTP instrumentations already should take care of creating spans for remote calls. What else, do you think, would be useful here?

It provide the similar features like gRPC.

Hey @ZRainc ,
The maintainers of this repo probably won't implement this (we don't have enough time/cycles to work on that), but we'll gladly accept a contribution.
