A shallow dive into auto-instrumenting Node.js applications with Elastic APM
The manual approach is alright for recording custom operations, but it can get pretty tiring doing it for every database query or API call. For that, there's another approach: having the dev explicitly request instrumented wrappers of their libraries. For instance, to automatically [instrument your PostgreSQL queries with Zipkin, you'd need to wrap the pg module with Zipkin's library and use that for your database queries.
