Distributed tracing in the service mesh: four myths
- williamallthing 7y agoAuthor here! Happy to answer any questions people might have.
- carllerche 7y agoHow is the topology discovered without tracing? The article mentions that metrics are used. Could you elaborate on how you go from metrics to the topology?
- williamallthing 7y agoThe metrics data includes upstream and downstream calls for each service, so you can pull those together to draw the whole topology. Don't need end-to-end traces for that.
