Zipkin is a distributed tracing system that helps us gather timing data for all the disparate services at Twitter.

See http://twitter.github.com/zipkin

You'll need Scala 2.9.1

Clone the repo, git clone git://github.com/twitter/zipkin, or download a release

To run a collector daemon: bin/collector

To run a query daemon: bin/query

To run a UI daemon: bin/web

For a more in-depth installation guide, see: http://twitter.github.com/zipkin/install.html

See CONTRIBUTING.md for guidelines.

Areas where we'd love to see contributions:

• adding tracing to more libraries and protocols
• interesting reports generated with Hadoop from the trace data
• extending collector to support more transports and storage systems
• trace data visualizations in the web UI

We use SemVer style versioning.

Thanks to everyone below for making Zipkin happen!
