Jaeger
Monitor and troubleshoot workflows in complex distributed systems
Jaeger is an open-source, cloud-native distributed tracing platform designed for modern microservice architectures. It maps the flow of requests and data as they traverse distributed systems, helping engineers identify performance bottlenecks, troubleshoot errors, and improve application reliability. The project is hosted under the Cloud Native Computing Foundation (CNCF) and is infinitely scalable.
Jaeger instruments applications to collect and correlate trace data as requests flow through multiple services, visualizing latency, errors, and dependencies in a unified platform.
