Tracing¶
Visualize the Requests Flow
The tracing system allows developers to visualize call flows in their infrastructure.
Traefik uses OpenTracing, an open standard designed for distributed tracing.
Traefik supports six tracing backends:
Configuration¶
By default, Traefik uses Jaeger as tracing backend.
To enable the tracing:
tracing: {}
[tracing]
--tracing=true
Common Options¶
serviceName
¶
Required, Default="traefik"
Service name used in selected backend.
tracing:
serviceName: traefik
[tracing]
serviceName = "traefik"
--tracing.serviceName=traefik
spanNameLimit
¶
Required, Default=0
Span name limit allows for name truncation in case of very long names. This can prevent certain tracing providers to drop traces that exceed their length limits.
0
means no truncation will occur.
tracing:
spanNameLimit: 150
[tracing]
spanNameLimit = 150
--tracing.spanNameLimit=150
