Implement tracing dual-write for KAS (!1168) · Merge requests · GitLab.org / cluster-integration / GitLab Agent for Kubernetes

Pawel Rozlach requested to merge prozlach/dual_write_otel into master Nov 07, 2023

The goal of this MR is to make KAS write traces to both the old observability stack (i.e. Jaeger-based) and the new one (Gitlab-UI based).

We are still working on getting Gitlab-UI on par with Jaeger when it comes to functionality. Having KAS data in the new system would allow us to dogfood our ingestion infrastructure and fine-tune it, and additionally let people testing the new UI use their own data instead of some auto-generated one which could provide better insights.

Once this MR gets merged, I will create a follow-up for the infra repo for gstg and gprd.
