OpenTracing: Beyond Distributed Tracing - Video 2

Explore the world of distributed tracing and its importance in microservices monitoring through this insightful conference talk. Delve into the OpenTracing project, understanding its standard, portable API for distributed tracing instrumentation. Examine the historical context of operational logging and metrics in distributed system monitoring, and discover how the OpenTracing API relates to these established concepts. Witness a practical demonstration involving donuts, distributed traces, and Prometheus monitoring, all implemented using OpenTracing. Learn from Ben Sigelman, an expert in distributed tracing and CoFounder and CEO of LightStep, as he shares his knowledge gained from building Google's production distributed systems tracing infrastructure, Dapper.
