  In production, you would probably want to have this sent to some other tool like Jaeger or an observability vendor.

• Cats and Clouds – There Are No Pillars in Observability with Yoshi Yamaguchi

  So I think that compared to new technologies such as Kubernetes or other CNCF projects, OpenTelemetry has a long history before its beginning. So now, OpenTelemetry is a joint project among the many SaaS vendors and also observability-related open-source projects such as Prometheus, Jaeger, Zipkin. And then, in terms of the APM vendors, including your company like New Relic, Google, AWS, Splunk, or Microsoft, Datadog, Dynatrace, and Lightstep, all of those companies are getting together to make the best solution to instrument the application. And each of those companies have their own struggles, and then they share those struggles and efforts with the community. So all the spec includes those histories and now get into one.

• A practical tracing journey with OpenTelemetry on Node.js

  Let's talk about the exporter. Because OTel is an open standard, you can theoretically export to any tool that supports the OTel API. For example, there's a ConsoleExporter included that prints traces to the console, but that's not very useful. There's an exporter to Elasticsearch, and you can write your own library to export to a file or database or whatever. However, two of the most popular options are Jaeger and Zipkin, and you can easily run them locally with Docker.

  Sounds like you want distributed tracing, for example Jaeger.

• Distributed Tracing: Build vs Buy
  3 projects | dev.to | 5 Aug 2021

  Jaeger is an open-source, distributed tracing tool that you can use as the basis for building your own distributed tracing solution. You can use Jaeger for transaction monitoring, latency optimization, root cause analysis, dependency analysis, and context propagation. Jaeger can run on any infrastructure and leverage OpenTelemetry regardless of the code language.

• GraphQL - Diving Deep
  47 projects | dev.to | 29 Jul 2021

  If you want to do this on your own, you can send traces or contexts from within the resolvers using the Jaeger/Opentelemetry SDKs and send all the information manually for tracing.

• The Stack #3
  22 projects | dev.to | 29 Jul 2021

  This when used with Jaeger, Zipkin or Tempo can provide you with Traces for your GraphQL operations which you can track across your resolvers. Do note that it is not advisable to be turned on for everything since it has a performance overhead.
