In modern distributed systems, understanding why a request is slow or where it fails can be challenging. This is especially true for authentication services like Nauthilus, which often interact with multiple backends like Redis, LDAP, or custom Lua scripts. To address this, Nauthilus provides built-in support for distributed tracing via OpenTelemetry (OTel).

With OpenTelemetry enabled, Nauthilus emits spans for every incoming request, allowing you to visualize the entire execution path—from the initial HTTP call to internal processing and backend interactions.
