Comment on Ask HN: Distributed tracing service with critical path analysis?

Comments

I think what you're looking for is Zipkin [0]. We use it in our microservers at Nulladmin.com via the opentracing Go library [1] and the zipkin-go-opentracing library [2]

My company actually has and uses Zipkin. The thing that I'm looking for that I think is lacking is a way to identify critical paths without manually clicking through a bunch of traces and eyeballing them.

+1 for zipkin

As a Cassandra fan, bonus points that it integrates all the way down into the Cassandra internal request tracing features, afaik the only tracing app/library that does so.
