I was looking at APM tools. Essentially Dynatrace and I could see that it also provides tracing capabilities that seem to be language agnostic and also without code modifications.

Where would jaeger/open tracing be a better option than a tool like dynatrace?

Yes, dynatrace (or others like Elastic APM) is capable of providing a lot more insight into an application other than tracing.

But just from tracing perspective... What advantages or capabilities does jaeger have that are better than APM tooling or not available in APMs. ONLY from the tracing perspective.

  • Have you found an answer since? To me the answer is none... Except for the fact that it's open source and free to use. That can be quite a big argument, because APM tools like ECE APM, Dynatrace, Appdynamics etc are all very expensive. – Quinten Scheppermans Jun 24 '20 at 13:05
