Jaeger client
A deprecated Java client library for instrumenting applications with distributed tracing, implementing the OpenTracing API for Jaeger.
What is Jaeger client?
Jaeger Client for Java is a deprecated instrumentation library that implements the OpenTracing API to add distributed tracing capabilities to Java applications. It allows developers to collect and send trace data to Jaeger for monitoring microservices interactions. The library solves the problem of understanding request flows and performance bottlenecks in distributed systems by providing detailed trace information.
Java developers building microservices or distributed systems who need to integrate tracing for observability and debugging. It is aimed at teams using or planning to use Jaeger as their tracing backend.
Developers chose this library for its full OpenTracing compliance, seamless integration with Jaeger, and additional features like Zipkin compatibility and debug trace support. Its modular design and support for various sampling strategies provided flexibility in production tracing setups.
