Tracing the Journey into Distributed Tracing

Onboarding new technologies in large scale organizations can be quite the challenge. Distributed Tracing is one such technology with companies occasionally struggling with its roll out, and later collecting the benefits that it promises. This talk describes the steps that led to a successful (although laborious) process to adopt Distributed Tracing in a large scale org. We'll go through those steps, and from there extract some guidelines on how to approach onboarding other technologies, so we don't reinvent the wheel every time.
