This is a distributed tracing system that collects timing data to diagnose latency, identify bottlenecks, and troubleshoot performance problems across service-based architectures. It provides end-to-end trace collection and lookup, trace ID correlation for log linking, and query capabilities by service, operation, tags, or duration, includes summarized metrics such as time spent in each component and failure rates, and presents a dependency map showing how requests flow through applications, with instrumented code reporting data over common transports to a scalable storage backend for search, analysis, and observability by developers, site reliability engineers, and operations teams.

Zipkin can be found in Website Monitoring, Uptime & Performance categories.
