Java: Eventual Consistency (Sagas)
Answer
It tracks requests across services for debugging and performance monitoring.
Distributed tracing assigns a unique ID to each request, tracing its path through various services. This helps in identifying bottlenecks and understanding service interactions. In an e-commerce system, tracing can reveal why a checkout process is slow by highlighting delays in the payment or inventory services.
