Limitations of using Jaeger as a distributed tracing tool
Jaeger is a preferred choice when it comes to distributed tracing. But engineering teams need more than traces to resolve issues quickly. They need access to both metrics and traces. Metrics such as response times, error rates, request rates, and CPU usage are equally important to understand application performance.
A few key challenges of using Jaeger as a distributed tracing tool are as follows:
Only provides trace data. You will have to use another tool for metrics and logs management.
Databases supported by Jaeger need active maintenance.
Jaeger's web UI is limited with basic visualizations.
