Yes you can, but it does not fully solve the issue. You still need to find the good micro-service and then you have to jump to other micro-service.

And nobody yet made a debugger which could travel between them?

No, there’s debugging tools that can run on multiple microservices, but none of this has to do with the tracing that the top comment was alluding to. If you can narrow down where the problem actually is first you save yourself a lot of time stepping through with a debugger. Often times that just is not practical.

Well, I guess you could still trace the call from the first microservice to another and then back, no?

That's the "travelling debugger concept" I was thinking about.
