Nginx can support open telemetry style distributed tracing. We would like to add this functionality as this would increase the observability of the platform.

After some research it turns out that there might be some bugs with ingress-nginx and the open telemetry stack. This work can probably not continue until those issues are resolved.

Some things to consider,

  1. make sure that this does not add too much load to the system. Both performance and storage wise.

Just an update, there is still work ongoing in this area: kubernetes/ingress-nginx#8735
But it looks like it's getting closer and closer and hopefully we will be able to try this out in a month or two.
