Supporting protobuf 6

[mdedys]

Just wondering if supporting protobuf version 6 is on the roadmap or if something is blocking it?

phoenix/pyproject.toml

Line 37 in 5bd5a44

"protobuf>=3.20.2, <6.0",

@mdedys I'm not sure of the status on this, but @RogerHYang would know.

Can you help me understand what issue this is causing for you @mdedys?

[RogerHYang]

This is in fact limited by opentelemetry here. So our pyproject.toml doesn't actually do anything.

Thanks. @axiomofjoy this blocks me bumping another external dependency which is locked to v6 and above for protobuf.

Thanks @mdedys. Our recommended deployment pattern is to run Phoenix in a separate runtime from your application (e.g., via our official Docker container) and use the lightweight arize-phoenix-client package to interact with the server. This package has few dependencies and should not conflict with the dependencies in your application. Let us know if that approach resolves the dependency conflicts.
