OpenTracing: An Open Standard for Distributed Tracing
Logs help you understand what your application is doing. Most every application generates its own logs for the server that hosts it. But in a modern distributed system and in a microservices environment, logs are just not enough.
We can use services like ElasticSearch to gather all of an application’s logs together, which is simple enough when you’re dealing with just one application. But nowadays, an application is more like a collection of services, each of which generates its own logs. Since each log records the actions and events of the service, how do we span these services to get insight on the application?
