Intro: Jaeger
summary
Live demo shows Jaeger running as an all-in-one Docker plus a Hot Rod microservice app and visualizes full traces across frontend, customer, driver, route, MySQL and Redis; one request surfaces a Redis timeout and a 1.39s blocked MySQL query. Backend supports Cassandra/Elasticsearch or in-memory storage, uses Kafka + Flink-style pipeline for feature extraction, and plans post-trace sampling and incremental (incomplete) spans. Claims: end-to-end context propagation via OpenTracing works, adaptive sampling reduces missed anomalies, and aggregation enables automated anomaly detection.
