There are two types of visibility data that provide crucial insights into application and Kubernetes performance. Learn how the monitoring tools built into NGINX Ingress Controller and NGINX Service Mesh help improve visibility as you diagnose real-world problems.
Enabling OpenTracing with NGINX Ingress Controller for Kubernetes
Trace the traffic in your Kubernetes cluster end-to-end with native support for OpenTracing when using the NGINX and NGINXÂ Plus Ingress Controllers for Kubernetes for load balancing. Our step-by-step instructions show you how to get started, using Docker containers and Jaeger.
OpenTracing for NGINX and NGINX Plus
With the NGINX OpenTracing dynamic module, you get distributed tracing data for every application proxied by NGINX or NGINX Plus without having to instrument the applications individually. We provide instructions for configuring NGINX Plus and two sample tracers, Jaeger and Zipkin.
