2nd to last paragraph in the `Don't neglect to set "rules of the road"` section |
Really enjoying the book!
While reading, I came across what seems like a very minor typo, where in the 2nd to last paragraph on page 24 in the "rules of the road section", the last sentence reads:
"Chapter 4 will dive in deeper to a variety of open source frameworks for distributed tracing; we'd suggest using one of those."
As far as I can tell, it's Chapter 3 ("Open Source Instrumentation: Interfaces, Libraries, and Frameworks") that covers the frameworks, not Chapter 4 ("Best Practices for Instrumentation"). As I mentioned, a very minor typo, but figured I'd flag it.
Note from the Author or Editor:
Good catch!
Page 24, the last sentence of the paragraph under the italicized heading "Don't neglect to set 'rules of the road'" should refer to Chapter 3 instead of Chapter 4. |

3rd paragraph |
Apologies in advance for another minor nit, but in the 3rd paragraph on page 37, the text reads:
“The OpenTelemetry API provides three major things: distributed context propagation, management, application tracing, and application metrics. We’ll focus on the first two in this book.”
Should there be an “and” instead of a comma between “propagation” and “management”? As written it looks like a list of four things, but it seems like distributed context management is supposed to be grouped with propagation (to make it three items).
Note from the Author or Editor:
Page 37, Paragraph 3 should read "The OpenTelemetry API provides three major things: distributed context propagation management, application tracing, and application metrics. We'll focus on the first two in this book." |
