Zipkin Description
It aids in collecting timing information essential for diagnosing latency issues within service architectures. Its functionalities encompass both the gathering and retrieval of this data. When you have a trace ID from a log, you can easily navigate directly to it. If you don't have a trace ID, queries can be made using various parameters such as service names, operation titles, tags, and duration. Additionally, notable data is summarized, including the proportion of time spent on each service and the success or failure of operations. The Zipkin user interface also features a dependency diagram that illustrates the volume of traced requests processed by each application. This visualization can be instrumental in recognizing overall patterns, including error trajectories and interactions with outdated services. Overall, this tool not only simplifies the troubleshooting process but also enhances the understanding of service interactions within complex architectures.

Edge Delta
Edge Delta is a new way to do observability. We are the only provider that processes your data as it's created and gives DevOps, platform engineers and SRE teams the freedom to route it anywhere. As a result, customers can make observability costs predictable, surface the most useful insights, and shape your data however they need.
Our primary differentiator is our distributed architecture. We are the only observability provider that pushes data processing upstream to the infrastructure level, enabling users to process their logs and metrics as soon as they’re created at the source. Data processing includes:
* Shaping, enriching, and filtering data
* Creating log analytics
* Distilling metrics libraries into the most useful data
* Detecting anomalies and triggering alerts
We combine our distributed approach with a column-oriented backend to help users store and analyze massive data volumes without impacting performance or cost.
By using Edge Delta, customers can reduce observability costs without sacrificing visibility. Additionally, they can surface insights and trigger alerts before data leaves their environment.
