Developer's Note: Research on Distributed Tracing, Comparing With Tempo and ClickHouse
When it comes to observability, people often refer to its three pillars: metrics, tracing, and logging. At VictoriaMetrics, we already have solutions for metrics and logging. Throughout these years, we’ve heard a common question from the community: When will VictoriaTraces be released? If you are interested in this topic, then this blog post is for you. We’ll share the results of our research into distributed tracing and explore two key questions: Will there be a VictoriaTraces? And how competitive could it be?
OpenTelemetry, Prometheus, and More: Which Is Better for Metrics Collection and Propagation?
OpenTelemetry, Prometheus 2.x, Prometheus 3.x, and vmagent are put together for comparison in scraping and pushing data to remote storage.
