Our distributed tracing infrastructure is grouped into three sections: tracer library instrumentation, stream processing, and storage. An additional implication of a lenient sampling policy is the need for scalable stream processing and storage infrastructure fleets to handle increased data volume. Storage: don’t break the bank!
