OpenTelemetry Tracing

April 8, 2025

Pomerium’s tracing is now powered by OpenTelemetry, making it easier to plug into your existing observability stack. With industry-standard tracing, you get deeper insight into every request that flows through Pomerium. Key improvements include:

  • Seamless integration – Export Pomerium trace data to your favorite monitoring tools (Jaeger, Datadog, Honeycomb, etc.) without custom adapters.

  • End-to-end visibility – Each Pomerium service generates standardized spans, so you can follow a user’s journey across authenticate, proxy, envoy, and authorize components in one trace.

  • Easier debugging – Quickly pinpoint performance bottlenecks or errors in request handling with the rich context provided by OpenTelemetry spans.

All of this works out of the box in v0.29.0—just configure your tracing backend of choice and you’re good to go.
