During a discussion of South East Asian good, Coté & Josh Long manager to talk about Josh's book, Cloud Native Java (co-written by Kenny Bastani). They go over some of the less well discussed sections, like instrumentation and monitoring applications. In doing so, they discuss opentracing, Zipkin, Sleuth, and how developers should both code and use for better tracing. There's some nuanced detail on monitoring versus tracing as well.

Also, we discuss how relational databases are traditional tacos, while all these new data stores are fusion tacos.
