/**
 * {@code SumObserver} is the asynchronous instrument corresponding to Counter, used to capture a
 * monotonic sum with Observe(sum).
 *
 * <p>"Sum" appears in the name to remind that it is used to capture sums directly. Use a
 * SumObserver to capture any value that starts at zero and rises throughout the process lifetime
 * and never falls.
 *
 * <p>A {@code SumObserver} is a good choice in situations where a measurement is expensive to
 * compute, such that it would be wasteful to compute on every request.
 *
 * <p>Example:
 *
 * <pre>{@code
 * class YourClass {
 *
 *   private static final Meter meter = OpenTelemetry.getMeterRegistry().get("my_library_name");
 *   private static final LongSumObserver cpuObserver =
 *       meter.
 *           .longSumObserverBuilder("cpu_time")
 *           .setDescription("System CPU usage")
 *           .setUnit("ms")
 *           .build();
 *
 *   void init() {
 *     cpuObserver.setCallback(
 *         new LongSumObserver.Callback<LongResult>() {
 *          {@literal @}Override
 *           public void update(LongResult result) {
 *             // Get system cpu usage
 *             result.observe(cpuIdle, "state", "idle");
 *             result.observe(cpuUser, "state", "user");
 *           }
 *         });
 *   }
 * }
 * }</pre>
