Now let’s look at how we designed the tracing infrastructure that powers Edgar. This insight led us to build Edgar: a distributed tracing infrastructure and user experience. By 2017, open source projects like Open-Tracing and Open-Zipkin were mature enough for use in polyglot runtime environments at Netflix.

since 2017, and many customers have used it with great success while we collected requirements for the next iteration of our Lambda extension. Distributing accounts across the infrastructure is an architectural decision, as a given account often has similar usage patterns, languages, and sizes for their Lambda functions.
