Distributed tracing and context propagation have become important analysis tools for today's multi-layer distributed systems comprised of numerous micro-services implemented in different languages. The success of these tools is dependent on pervasive instrumentation of applications and libraries with trace context propagation support.
The OpenTracing project (http://opentracing.github.io) provides a multi-lingual standard for application-level instrumentation that's loosely coupled to any particular downstream tracing or monitoring system. In this way, adding or switching tracing implementations becomes a single-step code change.
In the current version, opentracing-javascript provides the core API and a default no-op implementation.
A reference implementation and a set of simple examples are planned.
See DEV.md for further development status and notes.

Trace is a virtual representation of the path a request takes through the layers and services of a (potentially distributed) system.
Span is a representation of any logical unit of work in the system. Spans can be nested and ordered to model parent-child and casual relationships. A Trace is tree of Spans.
