Would it then be OK to build a PoC to add OpenTracing capabilities around the Function executions? My goal is not to trace the internals of OpenWhisk, but rather provide tracing capabilities to the functions deployed into it.
I just went ahead and created a PoC for that. I have to say that OpenWhisk code base is really nice and intuitive, as well as the documentation! Nice job on that!
I opened the PR #2403 to start a discussion on whether this integration makes sense and if this would be the right way to do it. Also, I never did anything in Scala, so, forgive me if I made some gross mistakes :)
A possible next step is to add propagation data to the invocation meta data, so that we can do proper distributed tracing for chains of actions.
