Jaeger can show events associated with a Span. If you have instrumented your application with OTEL-Java sdk, you can just add a event using the API. The great part of this is that you will get a log entry which is bound to the trace/span and you will only see log entries for the specific request.

Here is an example where we have added an event in form of an exception, but the event API is not bound to exception scenarios.
