Migrating Eclipse Trace Compass to VSCode Extension for Theia

Watch a 32-minute conference talk from EclipseCon 2023 where Matthew Khouzam of Ericsson AB discusses the migration journey of Eclipse Trace Compass from an SWT-based Eclipse application to a VSCode extension for Theia. Learn about Ericsson's strategic motivations behind this transition, including business advantages and technical challenges. Explore the implementation gaps that need addressing, the project's future roadmap, and how the new decentralized architecture enables scaling to monitor over ten thousand computers simultaneously. Gain insights into different Trace Compass variants and their optimal use cases, making it valuable for both users interested in future developments and developers planning similar Eclipse-to-VSCode migrations. The presentation includes practical tracing examples and is delivered with real-world implementation stories from Ludwigsburg, Germany.
