Don't let this gap widen
Why this program matters
Without distributed tracing, 75% of microservices incidents go unresolved in under 1h, costing 150k€ per major outage according to Gartner 2025.
Teams lose 45% of their time on manual debugging, increasing MTTR x8 and frustrating clients.
In 2026, 82% of SRE recruiters reject profiles without advanced observability, risking career stagnation and competitive lag for the company.
Every quarter without tracing skills widens gaps, exposing costly vulnerabilities to agile competitors.

* contact us for remote delivery feasibility** ratio varies depending on the program
Skills assessment methods
Assessment of skills acquired during the Training Distributed Tracing - Mastering Microservices Observability program is performed through:
- During training: case studies, hands-on labs and professional scenarios
- End of training: self-assessment questionnaire and skills evaluation by the trainer
- After training: completion certificate detailing acquired skills
Program accessibility
Learni is committed to making its programs accessible. All our programs are accessible to people with disabilities. Our teams are available to adapt the pedagogical methods to your specific needs. Please contact us for any adjustment request.
Enrollment terms and lead times
Registration is possible up to 48 business hours before the start of training. All our programs are built for corporate L&D budgets and delivered onsite or remotely.
Our method
Training quality, guaranteed at every step
Before, during, after: we frame the brief, introduce the trainer, tailor the content and measure impact. You stay in control from kickoff to wrap-up.
You meet the trainer beforehand
30-minute video call between you and the selected trainer to validate the fit, adjust content and clear any final doubts.
- Live briefing on goals and team context.
- Veto right — we swap the trainer for free if needed.
Content tailored to your context
No recycled slides. The syllabus is reworked from your real cases: tools, constraints, vocabulary, ongoing projects.
- Hands-on cases drawn from your stack and projects.
- Program co-written then validated by your team.
Continuous quality follow-up
Live evaluations, 30/90/180-day check-ins and a consolidation plan. If the impact misses the mark, we rework it.
- NPS, knowledge quizzes and skills self-assessment.
- Satisfaction guarantee: fully satisfied or free rework.
A simple promise: you don't pay to discover the trainer on day one. Everything is validated upfront, by you.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Which tools are used in Distributed Tracing training?+
Hands-on work runs on installation, basic Traces, jaeger, propagators, multiple Languages and scalability. Those tools come from the Distributed Tracing program itself, delivered on site over 3 days, so participants practise on the stack they will use at work.
What can participants do after Distributed Tracing training?+
They can master the principles of distributed tracing to monitor professional applications, implement OpenTelemetry in certified enterprise environments and analyze complex traces with Jaeger to optimize performance. Those are the stated objectives of the Distributed Tracing program at Intermediate level, checked by the end-of-session assessment.
What does the Distributed Tracing program cover, day by day?+
Day 1: Distributed Tracing Fundamentals: OpenTelemetry Principles and Spans (Installation, Basic Traces). Day 2: Distributed Tracing Implementation: Advanced Instrumentation (Jaeger, Propagators, Multiple Languages). Day 3: Production Distributed Tracing: Kubernetes, Alerting, and Optimization (Scalability, Costs). The Distributed Tracing program runs over 3 days, delivered on site.
How is Distributed Tracing training assessed?+
Assessment relies on multiple-choice quiz to validate distributed tracing knowledge at the end of the training, assessment of practical exercises on real microservices and presentation of the red thread project on Kubernetes observability. Learni issues a completion certificate together with the individual assessment report at the end of the Distributed Tracing program, which an L&D team can file as evidence.
How much does Distributed Tracing training cost per participant?+
$3,465 (USD) per participant. A detailed quote is sent within one business day, and team pricing applies from the second participant.
How long does Distributed Tracing training take?+
3 days, available live online (US time zones) or on-site at your offices. Half-day tracks spread over several weeks are possible so the team stays operational.
Who pays for Distributed Tracing training?+
Most US teams pay directly through their company L&D or training budget. Learni invoices in US dollars and accepts bank transfer (ACH/wire) or card, with volume pricing for teams. A purchase order is welcome.
What do participants need to know before Distributed Tracing training?+
Experience with microservices, Docker/Kubernetes, Java/Go/Node.js languages.
Is a certificate issued after Distributed Tracing training?+
Yes. A Learni completion certificate is issued, along with the individual evaluation report. Learni is a certified training provider and prepares for third-party certifications, but does not award them itself.
