Updated Candidate Recommendation for Trace Context
13 August 2019
<https://www.w3.org/blog/news/archives/7899>
The Distributed Tracing Working Group invites implementations of an updated Candidate Recommendation of "Trace Context." This specification defines standard HTTP headers and a value format to propagate context information that enables distributed tracing scenarios. The specification standardizes how context information is sent and modified between services. Context information uniquely identifies individual requests in a distributed system and also defines a means to add and propagate provider-specific context information. Comments are requested by 9 September 2019.
