Look inside
In this liveProject, you’ll instrument tracing inside a single microservice. You’ll use Spring Boot to first construct your microservice, and then use the OpenTracing API and Jaeger client library to generate traces and send data to the backend Jaeger server. What we create in this project will form a foundation for later projects in the series.
This project is designed for learning purposes and is not a complete, production-ready application or solution.

book resources

When you start your liveProject, you get full access to the following books for 90 days.
