Documentation in Eclipse Hono helm charts mention a Kubernetes sidecar based usage of Jaeger in Hono components but the helm charts don't specify what needs to be done if Jaeger is deployed externally (i.e. without using Hono helm charts) and you want to use this external Jaeger deployment for Hono traces. Check e.g. jaeger architecture and deployment documentation for more info.
~~all-in-one Jaeger deployment (here) is suitable for testing & development using Kubernetes Operator, but otherwise Kubernetes Operator based deployment needs to be investigated; will really bring any pros with it compare to e.g. Helm and kubectl?

Eclipse Hono helm charts can deploy an example Jaeger deployment using jaeger-all-in-one image: https://github.com/eclipse/packages/blob/2760401288f22048346287d12abf53bd3b12320c/charts/hono/values.yaml#L232-L275
Jaeger documentation says that all-in-one-image uses Badger as storage backend and it can be configured for persistent storage: (NOTE:
--badger.ephemeral=false
and-v <storage_dir_on_host>:/badger
) https://www.jaegertracing.io/docs/1.22/deployment/#badger---local-storageDocumentation in Eclipse Hono helm charts mention a Kubernetes sidecar based usage of Jaeger in Hono components but the helm charts don't specify what needs to be done if Jaeger is deployed externally (i.e. without using Hono helm charts) and you want to use this external Jaeger deployment for Hono traces.

TODO ~~1. Deploy Jaeger with Hono Helm charts (See https://github.com/smaddis/smad-deploy-azure/issues/41) Check what Jaeger UI looks like when Hono sends traces to it. Documentation for configuring Hono with Jaeger tracing available in Hono documentation: https://www.eclipse.org/hono/docs/dev/admin-guide/monitoring-tracing-config/#configuring-usage-of-jaeger-tracing-included-in-docker-images
