Zipkin

Overview

Set up Zipkin for distributed tracing to visualize request flows across services. Covers deployment, instrumentation with Spring Boot and OpenTelemetry, storage configuration, and dependency analysis. The current server release is 3.6.1; the openzipkin/zipkin:3 image listens on port 9411 for the UI, the span API (POST /api/v2/spans) and queries (/api/v2/*). Zipkin does not receive OTLP itself; OpenTelemetry SDKs must send Zipkin JSON, or go through an OpenTelemetry Collector with the zipkin exporter.
