Application Performance Management (APM) tools are hot right now - so much so that it won't be long before APM reaches the same level of notoriety as the cloud, the IoT, and a personal favourite - big data.
Distributed tracing provides a detailed view into application performance. Each trace shows you how an individual request was executed in your app: which user did what, which services were involved, how long it took, and whether the request executed successfully. Capturing that level of detail across hundreds or thousands of services provides a vast trove of information for troubleshooting and performance optimization, but it’s not always easy to find the exact trace events you need.
