summary
Jaeger reconstructs request executions into a live service graph and Gantt-style traces, demoed with the hotrod app run via Docker Compose and an all-in-one Jaeger container; it surfaces a 730 ms trace that hides a production case with ~100 RPC calls and an N+1 pattern whose fix gives up to 10x speedups. Backend options shown include Kafka, Cassandra, Elasticsearch and Badger, plus an ingestor and Kubernetes operator with TLS; trace comparison diffs and span-embedded logs successfully isolate root causes.
