Distributed tracing and event-driven communication
Distributed tracing and event-driven communication are two crucial concepts in the world of microservices and distributed systems. They address challenges related to monitoring and coordinating interactions between microservices. Let’s dive into these concepts.
Distributed tracing
Distributed tracing is a technique that’s used to track and monitor requests as they traverse multiple microservices in a distributed system. It provides end-to-end visibility into the flow of a request, allowing you to identify performance bottlenecks, troubleshoot issues, and optimize the system’s behavior.
Here’s how distributed tracing works:
