Jaeger
Jaeger is an open source, cloud native distributed tracing platform designed to monitor and troubleshoot complex microservices architectures. It maps request and data flows across distributed components, identifying performance bottlenecks and errors to improve application reliability. Originally created by Uber and now a graduated CNCF project, Jaeger provides robust observability, distributed context propagation, and transaction monitoring.
