Perfecting reliable code delivery for the cloud
summary
Shows how adding one Maven dependency turns a MicroProfile app into a distributed-tracing pipeline using Thorntail + OpenTracing and the Jaeger all-in-one Docker image; demos include a Minesweeper and Spring Music app, a 1,000‑request load test that exposes rising latency, and an OpenShift deployment writing traces to Cosmos DB. Explains spans vs traces, agent/collector/query components, and working examples that actually run and visualize end‑to‑end latency and errors.
