The Tracing Summit 2023 is a two-day, single-track conference on the topic of tracing. The event focuses on software and hardware tracing, gathering developers and end-users of tracing and trace analysis tools. The main goal of the Tracing Summit is to provide space for discussion between people of the various areas that benefit from tracing, namely parallel, distributed and/or real-time systems, as well as kernel development.
It was held at the Euskalduna Conference Centre, Bilbao, Spain the September 17th and 18th.
