When debugging microservices, it can be challenging for developers to identify the root cause of issues. Not to mention how frustrating it is to search through endless logs across multiple services and the time it takes them.

With all these challenges, however, there is a silver lining — distributed tracing. Where logging is bounded, distributed tracing thrives.

In this session, you'll learn what distributed tracing is, its benefits, what tools are out there for using tracing, and how you can use them to overcome logging challenges when dealing with distributed applications.

By the end of this session, you'll be able to use tracing to spend less time debugging microservices.
