In this respect, there is no difference from the caller prospective however a bit more work is going under the hood to transfer the active tracing span from JAX-RS client request filter to client response filter as in general those are executed in different threads (similarly to server-side asynchronous JAX-RS resource invocation). The actual invocation of the request by the client (with process name jaxrsclient/192.168.0.100) and consequent invocation of the service on the server side (process name jaxrsserver/192.168.0.100) is going to generate the following sample traces:
