SJUG #47 - Tracing async services

Zapraszamy na ostatnie w 2019 roku spotkanie Silesia JUG!

Tym razem Marcin Łukasiak zaprezentuje temat Tracing async services.

About

With the transition to microservices for large distributed systems and proliferation of asynchronous technologies, tracking the execution of the business processed becomes more important than ever. Tracing solutions can be used to both trace the status of the services themselves as well as to monitor the execution of the business processes. With OpenTracing, we get a vendor-neutral framework for distributed tracing instrumentation. We will explore the distributed microservices architecture and potential tracing implementation using Jaeger and Kafka with Elastic Search as storage for tracing messages. In one of the projects, we had a chance to implement a tracing solution to manage large business processes. We will explore that use case and why it is valuable to orchestrate our services with tracing technologies and what we can expect to get out of them. We will also take a broader view of Kafka as a messaging service and why it is so applicable for large distributed systems.
