Jaeger

Jaeger is an open source end to end distributed tracing system, allowing users to monitor and troubleshoot transactions in complex distributed systems.

Installation

Option 1: Quick start

Istio provides a basic sample installation to quickly get Jaeger up and running:

{{< text bash >}} $ kubectl apply -f {{< github_file >}}/samples/addons/jaeger.yaml {{< /text >}}

This will deploy Jaeger into your cluster. This is intended for demonstration only, and is not tuned for performance or security.

Option 2: Customizable install

Consult the Jaeger documentation to get started. No special changes are needed for Jaeger to work with Istio.
