A collection of tutorials for the OpenTracing API (https://opentracing.io).
The tutorials are using CNCF Jaeger (https://jaegertracing.io) as the tracing backend. For this tutorial, we'll start Jaeger via Docker with the default in-memory storage, exposing only the required ports. We'll also enable "debug" level logging:
docker run \
--rm \
-p 6831:6831/udp \
-p 6832:6832/udp \
-p 16686:16686 \
jaegertracing/all-in-one:1.7 \
--log-level=debug
Alternatively, Jaeger can be downloaded as a binary called all-in-one for different platforms from https://jaegertracing.io/download/.
Once the backend starts, the Jaeger UI will be accessible at http://localhost:16686.
