Tracing

    The tracing system allows developers to visualize call flows in their infrastructure.

    Traefik uses OpenTracing, an open standard designed for distributed tracing.

    Traefik supports five tracing backends:

    By default, Traefik uses Jaeger as tracing backend.

    To enable the tracing:

    1. --tracing=true

    serviceName

    Required, Default="traefik"

    Service name used in selected backend.

    1. --tracing.serviceName=traefik

    spanNameLimit

    Required, Default=0

    Span name limit allows for name truncation in case of very long names.This can prevent certain tracing providers to drop traces that exceed their length limits.

    0 means no truncation will occur.

    2.   spanNameLimit: 150

    1. --tracing.spanNameLimit=150
