Investigate Jaeger deprecation #359

Closed 4lch4 closed 7 months ago

4lch4 commented 8 months ago

I remembered something about Jaeger being deprecated and when speaking to the team Alex asked me to spend 15-30 minutes to investigate this and see what the actual case is. For example, the following repo has a big notice to move to OTEL but Jaeger is still referenced in countless places throughout the OTEL docs so I'm unsure what this deprecation actually means.

I'll look into it and report back here.

So, it looks like the Jaegar client libraries are what have been deprecated, everything else is fine:

They recommend using the OTEL SDKs instead.
