Distributed tracing with Resque background jobs

Helios' instrumentation of Resque enables developers to visualize, troubleshoot and test their async jobs that are a part of the E2E applicative flows.

Tracing & visualization

The visualization of traces containing Resque flows group together the enqueueing actions and the jobs themselves which are originated from the same service, so it will be clear what belongs to a single service.
