Memory

Version2.10 (outdated) 2.11 (latest)

The in-memory storage is not intended for production workloads. It’s intended as a simple solution to get started quickly and data will be lost once the process exits.

By default, there’s no limit in the amount of traces stored in memory but a limit can be established via max_traces parameter:

  jaeger_storage:
    backends:
      some_store:
        memory:
          max_traces: 100000
