Open Tracing - What Is It?

Open tracing is a lot like your local tracing if you're looking at the function calls that are happening in the beam but it's usually added in specific places where you want what they call spans which are the lowest level of the trace. So being able to build that graph of relationships and be of the pinpoint where things are going wrong where you're slowing this is happening by looking at a full distributed system instead of each one individually. Yeah, yeah, I definitely can relate to that. Nice, nice, very exciting.
