OTel in Practice Presents: Context, Abstraction, & Threading the Needle with Hazel Weakly

Join Hazel Weakly for this thoughtful discussion on Observability, distributed tracing, and various challenges associated with building and using tracing systems. Learn about the importance of trace context, span links, and baggage.
Hazel also dives into the difficulties of building tracing libraries and abstractions, emphasizing the challenges of maintaining context, graph rewriting, and collapsing spans. She also digs into how current tracing solutions often require intrusive instrumentation and lack convenient ways to manipulate the trace graph.
