End-to-end request tracing across microservices using Jaeger or Zipkin, integrated automatically by Istio sidecars.
End-to-end request tracing across microservices using Jaeger or Zipkin, integrated automatically by Istio sidecars.
Istio Envoy sidecars automatically generate span data for every request. For traces to propagate across services, your application must forward B3 trace headers (x-request-id, x-b3-traceid, x-b3-spanid, x-b3-parentspanid, x-b3-sampled). Traces are sent to Jaeger or Zipkin.
