Save Big on Coursera Plus. 7,000+ courses at $160 off. Limited Time Only! Grab it Explore an innovative approach to auto-instrumenting Go libraries for tracing in this 39-minute conference talk from DevConf.US 2024. Discover how eBPF and OpenTelemetry can be leveraged to implement context propagation and tracing in Go applications without requiring manual code changes or process restarts. Learn about the technical details, challenges, and future plans for this open-source project as speakers Mike Dame and Tyler Yahn delve into the intricacies of achieving auto-instrumentation in compiled languages like Go. Gain insights into overcoming the limitations of Go's runtime and implementing tracing capabilities similar to those available in languages with dynamic runtimes such as Python and Java.
