Distributed tracing, also called distributed request tracing, is a method used to profile and monitor applications, especially those built using a microservices architecture. Distributed tracing helps pinpoint where failures occur and what causes poor performance. –https://opentracing.io/docs/overview/wh...
Distributed tracing provides end-to-end visibility into how requests flow through complex systems, particularly in microservices andcloud-native architectures. These are systems where a single user action can initiate interactions across numerous services and servers. In the past,tracking transactions with ...
Distributed tracing tracks a request when it travels across different services in a microservices architecture. While doing so, it provides visibility into each service's performance and interactions. For instance, think of any popular online video game with millions of users. This game must keep tr...

Her research interest includes analysis and evaluating of software systems such as microservices and serverless application, software tracing and logging, DevOps, AIOps, and studying software architectures and patterns....
Grafana Cloud's distributed tracing system allows you to understand overall system health and track down issues quickly. It is fully compatible with OpenTelemetry, Jaeger, and Zipkin trace formats.
Distributed tracingis used to understand control flow within distributed systems. Especially in dynamic microservices architectures, distributed tracing is an essential component of efficient monitoring, application optimization, debugging, and troubleshooting. ...
Developers should refer to every span – parent/root and subsequent child spans – in distributed tracing to gain a comprehensive breakdown of request performance throughout the entire lifecycle. “Every span tells a story—tracking the journey of requests across your microservices architecture.” ...
