Open Invite | OpenTracing Quarterly Call
I joined the OpenTracing project some months ago and progressively got more involved. I am now helping organize the first quarterly OpenTracing update call. If you are interested in attending, read on!
To cut to the chase and RSVP, please follow the instructions in the Agenda flyer.
Some background
OpenTracing is a vendor-neutral context propagation API. Developers use it to instrument their code base and pass context from the start to finish of a request. Once hooked to a tracing system, real-times traces of the app in production are available. Common use cases for tracing include, latency and reliability monitoring, root cause analysis, and debugging in microservices based architectures. To learn more about OpenTracing, check out Ben Sigelman’s article about the motivations and design principles behind OpenTracing.
Call details
The scope of this call assumes attendees are familiar with distributed tracing (a la Dapper, Zipkin, or LightStep).
