Distributed Tracing Microservices Architecture with OpenTelemetry

microservices observability tracing kubernetes
Prompt
Design a comprehensive distributed tracing solution for a microservices architecture using OpenTelemetry, Jaeger, and Kubernetes. Create instrumentation for a multi-language system (Go, Python, Node.js) that captures end-to-end request flows, includes contextual baggage, supports custom spans, and provides performance overhead less than 5%. Include configuration for sampling strategies, context propagation between services, and integration with existing logging and monitoring infrastructure.
