Jaeger: The Future with OpenTelemetry and Metrics
summary
Jaeger deprecates native clients in favor of OpenTelemetry clients and shows a working Java agent auto‑instrumentation that adds HTTP and DB attributes with no code changes; the OpenTelemetry Collector (contrib image) reads/writes Jaeger protocols and can mutate spans; a span metrics processor derives Prometheus‑compatible metrics from traces and surfaces them in Jaeger’s new monitoring tab; the system also adds adaptive sampling and emerging eBPF auto‑instrumentation for Go.
