TL;DR AI
2 min readKey summary
Jaeger v2 rebuilds its core on OpenTelemetry Collector and OTLP for a more unified tracing pipeline.
It is also adding MCP, ACP, and AG-UI support to better observe AI agents and agentic workflows.
The goal is to turn natural-language debugging requests into trace queries and make AI observability easier.
This aims to close the visibility gap for generative AI by speeding ingestion and simplifying human-agent debugging.
