             Summary: Add Zipkin http transport
                 Key: HTRACE-287
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HTRACE-287
             Project: HTrace
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: zipkin
            Reporter: Adrian Cole


During HTRACE-235, Cosmin decoupled zipkin from scribe. This was important, as 
that formalized the kafka transport. For years, zipkin was complex to 
understand due to beginners being unfamiliar with terminology. This was 
compounded by the amount of tiers needed to be deployed before one can start 
work.

Zipkin now has a "starter architecture", where the query server exposes a POST 
endpoint which can receive spans encoded in thrift or json. By supporting the 
http transport, we avail this simpler starter architecture to HTrace beginners 
as well.
