It seems to miss some aggregation stuff, but also it's improving every time I check. I wonder if anyone's used it in anger yet and how far is it from replacing datadog or honeycomb.
tempo still feels very much: look at a trace that you found from elsewhere (like logs).
with so much information in traces and the pure volume, the aggregation really is the key to actionable info out of a tracing setup if it's going to be the primary entry point.
I've not. Honestly, I'm not in the market for tool shopping at the moment, I need another honeycomb-style moment of "this is incredible" to start looking again. I think it would take "Honeycomb, but we handle metric rollups and do logs" right now.
