The reference Java implementation uses too much hard-coded static variables.
Look sexy for demonstration, but is it configuration nightmare.
I had a lot more success and ease of use using open zipkin, highly recommend.
- ahachete 6y agoI'm not affiliated with otel, but I'd say it is just otel is still moving forward quickly and there's no good (almost not) documentation on how to use it. I did some small setup with otel, Java and Quarkus, and I will publish a blog post soon on how I did it.
- brown9-2 6y agoThe lack of documentation is a problem, and I’m not sure that moving fast is a great excuse. OpenCensus has the same problem - some pages have said “coming soon” for years https://opencensus.io/advanced-concepts/context-propagation/ https://opencensus.io/advanced-concepts/context-propagation/
