Distributed Tracing 101: Definition, Working and Implementation

Feb 11, 2025 By Anjali Udasi In Last9
Modern applications rely on microservices, making it tough to track issues across services. Distributed tracing helps by mapping a request’s journey and pinpointing latency, failures, and dependencies. Unlike traditional monitoring, tracing connects the dots between services, offering deeper visibility. But implementing it isn’t easy—it brings high data volumes, performance overhead, and complexity.

Out-of-the-box OpenTelemetry-powered Kafka & Celery monitoring | SigNoz Launch Week 3.0 Day 3

Feb 11, 2025 By SigNoz In SigNoz
Today, we are excited to announce OpenTelemetry-powered messaging queue monitoring in SigNoz. Debugging issues in Kafka and Celery queues has traditionally been a black box, with limited correlation between message producers, consumers, and broker metrics. With our messaging queue monitoring, teams can correlate Kafka broker metrics with OpenTelemetry spans, enabling deep insights into consumer lag, throughput, drop rates, and performance bottlenecks.

The Ultimate Guide to OpenTelemetry Visualization

Feb 10, 2025 By Prathamesh Sonpatki In Last9
Modern software systems are complex, with multiple services interacting across different environments. Understanding how they behave—tracking performance, identifying bottlenecks, and diagnosing failures—requires more than just collecting data. OpenTelemetry provides a standardized way to gather logs, metrics, and traces, but the real value comes from making that data easy to interpret through visualization.

Stop Logging the Request Body!

Feb 10, 2025 By Martin Thwaites In Honeycomb
With more and more people adopting OpenTelemetry and specifically using the tracing signal, I’ve seen an uptick in people wanting to add the entire request and response body as an attribute. This isn’t ideal, as it wasn’t when people were logging the body as text logs. In this blog post, I’ll explain why this is a bad idea, what are the pitfalls, and more importantly, what you should do instead.

Grafana Beyla 2.0: distributed traces, scalable Kubernetes deployments, and more

Feb 10, 2025 By Nikola Grcevski In Grafana
In November 2023, we released Grafana Beyla 1.0, the first major milestone in our pursuit of zero-code (and zero-effort) eBPF instrumentation. We delivered a way — through a single command-line — to automatically instrument any application supporting HTTP/gRPC protocols, as well as provide basic network packet flow information.
