In this talk, you will learn about the concept and benefits of tracing by examining the open-source project OpenTelemetry. You will leave this session knowing how to set up OpenTelemetry to get better visibility and troubleshoot your system faster.
Tracing and observability are becoming very popular as distributed services are getting more complex. To better understand our architecture and to be able to troubleshoot production issues faster, we need to track how requests are populated throughout the system. By monitoring the interactions between the different components we can overcome some of the native complexity of distributed services. In this talk, you will learn about the concept and benefits of tracing by examining the open-source project OpenTelemetry in its Python version. You will leave this session knowing how to set up OpenTelemetry yourself and utilize open-source solutions and tracing data to get better visibility and troubleshoot your system faster.
