Distributed tracing for
microservices with Jaeger

3.
What is Jaeger?

4.
Jaeger, inspired by Dapper and OpenZipkin, is a distributed tracing system
released as open source by Uber Technologies. It is used for monitoring and
troubleshooting microservices-based distributed systems
https://www.jaegertracing.io/docs/1.17/

5.
What is Jaeger for?

6.
Distributed transaction monitoring
Performance and latency optimization
Root cause analysis
Service dependency analysis
Distributed context propagation

7.
Do we really need all this things?

8.
Definitely, if your application’s architecture like in Uber ↓

9.
Tracing types

10.
1. Cross-process tracing
2. Database tracing
3. In-process tracing

11.
How to deploy, operate
& monitor Jaeger?

12.
https://hub.docker.com/u/jaegertracing
Jaeger provides Kubernetes operator:
https://github.com/jaegertracing/jaeger-operator
Jaeger components are released as Docker images:
https://www.jaegertracing.io/docs/1.17/deployment/

17.
What is “traces”?

18.
● TRACE
● SPAN
● SPAN CONTEXT
The description of a transaction as it moves through a distributed system.
A named, timed operation representing a piece of the workflow.
contains data that the tracing system needs to propagate to the downstream service

20.
How to get traces?

21.
1. Hand-made Instrumentation of
your application
2. Configuration of already
instrumented software

22.
How to made
instrumentation?

23.
OpenTracing - is set of APIs, libraries and specifications
https://op entracing.io/docs/overview/what-is-
tracing/

25.
Distributed tracing,
OpenTracing, Jaeger. What
the difference?

26.
1. Distributed Tracing - is method/approach
1. OpenTracing - is set of APIs, libraries and
specifications
1. Jaeger - is a infrastructure layer which store and
process data which corresponding OpenTracing
specification

27.
What software already
support tracing out of the
box?

28.
Service Proxy API Gateway Service Mesh

29.
So why I should do
applications instrumentation
if service mesh could care
about tracing?

30.
1. If you want to know about
performance inside application
2. If you services communication is not just
response/replay over http

req.Header.Add("x-request-id", r.Header.Get("x-request-id"))
req.Header.Add("x-b3-traceid", r.Header.Get("x-b3-traceid"))
req.Header.Add("x-b3-spanid", r.Header.Get("x-b3-spanid"))
req.Header.Add("x-b3-parentspanid", r.Header.Get("x-b3-parentspanid"))
req.Header.Add("x-b3-sampled", r.Header.Get("x-b3-sampled"))
req.Header.Add("x-b3-flags", r.Header.Get("x-b3-flags"))
req.Header.Add("x-ot-span-context", r.Header.Get("x-ot-span-context"))

32.
Tears and disper of
microservice observability...

33.
1. TCP 2. Message Buss

34.
Demo time!
