Serverless computing transactions are a combination of owned code and managed services. Applying distributed tracing on your own code through instrumentation is relatively simple. The challenge lays with the managed service, how to trace a full transaction across services like queues, streams, and databases. We'll discuss:

• The technical challenges gaining observability with managed services
• Methods to build the full trail of transactions across managed services
• Ideas on how to obtain observability in a highly async distributed world
• Drill down to managed services examples
