Comparing OpenTelemetry and Jaeger [2025 Guide]
OpenTelemetry is a vendor-neutral platform for creating and collecting telemetry data, including logs, metrics, and traces. Jaeger targets distributed tracing in microservice.
Distributed Tracing: A Complete Guide
Although microservices have been such a blessing, they have certainly complicated the monitoring process. It is difficult to ascertain what component faulted, at what time, and where. Then maybe it is the right time to discuss Distributed Tracing!
OpenTelemetry vs OpenTracing - Key Differences and Migration Path
OpenTelemetry and OpenTracing are open-source projects to enhance observability in distributed systems, but they serve distinct purposes. Take a look at their key differences and how to migrate from OpenTracing to OpenTelemetry.
