Tracing - bobbae/gcp GitHub Wiki

Cloud Trace is a distributed tracing system that collects latency data from your applications and displays it in the Google Cloud Console. You can track how requests propagate through your application and receive detailed near real-time performance insights. Cloud Trace automatically analyzes all of your application's traces to generate in-depth latency reports to surface performance degradations and can capture traces from all of your VMs, containers, or App Engine projects.

Cloud Trace recommends using OpenTelemetry. OpenTelemetry is an open-source product from the merger between OpenCensus and OpenTracing.

Cloud Trace is part of Google Cloud operations suite.
