Distributed Tracing
Following adds this technology to your private workspace so related learning is easier to organise and revisit.
What is Distributed Tracing?
Distributed tracing follows an individual request as it crosses services, processes and asynchronous boundaries. This profile connects the concept to KBY's practical engineering guidance.
Instrumentation creates spans linked by trace and parent identifiers, recording timing, status and selected attributes for each operation. Sampling and context propagation make traces useful at scale while controlling cost and protecting sensitive data.
