             Summary: Add OpenZipkin integration to Bigtop
                 Key: BIGTOP-2072
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BIGTOP-2072
             Project: Bigtop
          Issue Type: New Feature
            Reporter: Andrew Purtell


Twitter recently relaunched Zipkin as Open Zipkin (https://github.com/openzipkin). Zipkin is a Dapper-inspired distributed tracing framework with some strong integration points with the Hadoop ecosystem and much of Bigtop, including:
- Support (in HTrace) for sending spans from Hadoop, HBase, and Phoenix to a Zipkin span receiver
- HBase storage back end for Zipkin: https://github.com/openzipkin/zipkin-hbase
- Hadoop job that aggregates Zipkin spans for the UI: https://github.com/openzipkin/zipkin-dependencies-hadoop
- Integrated Kafka receiver: https://github.com/openzipkin/zipkin
- Flume sink that supports sending Zipkin spans to the Zipkin collector: https://github.com/openzipkin/flume-zipkin-collector-sink

As far as I know everything is licensed with the ASL v2.

Core Zipkin artifacts are available in Maven central: http://search.maven.org/#search%7Cga%7C1%7Czipkin 

This issue is to investigate the feasibility of aligning HTrace, Hadoop, HBase, etc. with Zipkin in the Bigtop context to provide integrated distributed tracing.
