Kubernetes CronJob Monitoring and Tracing

Ability to monitor CronJob as a separate service and enable tracing for CronJobs will help in monitoring the downstream calls just like other services.

CronJobs can call other services using Rest APIs. It is helpful if we can monitor those Rest API calls.

    Most cronjobs are scheduled to run at a particular time or times of the day. Duration of the job depends on the data to be processed. Some cronjobs run 24x7.

    Hello Neha Sharma,

    Thank you for the AHA request. Would you have more information about how long your Golang cronJobs usually run?

    Thanks,

    Thanks for bringing this Idea to our attention!

    It makes sense, though while reviewing we figured out that there is some preparation work that needs to happen before. We will come back to it in the future.
