Aspects of the present disclosure provide systems and methods directed toward monitoring transactions between computing resources of a computing system. A transaction agent may monitor transactions between computing resources and generate transaction log information corresponding to the transactions. A current transaction rate for a current time period and a previous transaction rate for a previous time period may be automatically obtained based on transaction log information. The current transaction rate may be compared to the previous transaction rate, and a transaction rate alert may be generated responsive to determining that the previous transaction rate exceeds the current transaction rate. A current and previous transaction latency average may also be obtained based on transaction time information of the transaction log information. The transaction latency averages may be compared, and a transaction latency alert may be generated responsive to determining that the current transaction latency average exceeds the previous transaction latency average.
