This flexibility enables users to choose a database that best fits their existing infrastructure and performance requirements. The two main contenders are:</p><ol><li>Elasticsearch: The recommended option by the Jaeger team.</li><li>Cassandra: A historically popular choice, still widely used.</li></ol><p>Additionally, Jaeger supports other options like Kafka for high-load ingestion scenarios. The choice of database significantly impacts your tracing system's performance, scalability, and query capabilities.</p><h2 class="content-header" id="elasticsearch-as-jaegers-recommended-backend"><a href="#elasticsearch-as-jaegers-recommended-backend" aria-hidden="true" tabindex="-1"><span class="content-header-link"><svg class="h-5 linkicon w-5" fill="currentColor" viewbox="0 0 20 20" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg"><path d="M12.232 4.232a2.5 2.5 0 0 1 3.536 3.536l-1.225 1.224a.75.75 0 0 0 1.061 1.06l1.224-1.224a4 4 0 0 0-5.656-5.656l-3 3a4 4 0 0 0 .225 5.865.75.75 0 0 0 .977-1.138 2.5 2.5 0 0 1-.142-3.667l3-3Z"/><path d="M11.603 7.963a.75.75 0 0 0-.977 1.138 2.5 2.5 0 0 1 .142 3.667l-3 3a2.5 2.5 0 0 1-3.536-3.536l1.225-1.224a.75.75 0 0 0-1.061-1.06l-1.224 1.224a4 4 0 1 0 5.656 5.656l3-3a4 4 0 0 0-.225-5.865Z"/></svg></span></a>Elasticsearch as Jaeger's Recommended Backend</h2><p>Elasticsearch has emerged as the preferred choice for Jaeger deployments.
