Distributed tracing is a technique used to monitor applications, particularly those built using a microservices architecture. It tracks a single request or transaction from when it enters the system, through all the various services it touches, until a response is generated. This provides a detailed view of the request's journey, helping to understand system behavior, pinpoint bottlenecks, and debug issues. As modern applications increasingly adopt distributed architectures, the ability to observe and understand these complex interactions has become crucial for maintaining reliability and performance.
