Building Netflix’s Distributed Tracing Infrastructure

The Netflix TechBlog

OCTOBER 19, 2020

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. Our distributed tracing infrastructure is grouped into three sections: tracer library instrumentation, stream processing, and storage.

For example, to handle traffic spikes and pay only for what they use. These functions are executed by a serverless platform or provider (such as AWS Lambda, Azure Functions or Google Cloud Functions) that manages the underlying infrastructure, scaling and billing. Scale automatically based on the demand and traffic patterns.

Our straining database infrastructure on Oracle led us to evaluate if we could develop a purpose-built database that would support our business needs for the long term. As we began growing the AWS business, we realized that external customers might find our Dynamo database just as useful as we found it within Amazon.com.
