Abstract: A computer-implemented method for analyzing spans and traces associated with a microservices-based application executing in a distributed computing environment comprises aggregating a plurality of ingested spans associated with one or more applications executing in the distributed computing environment into a plurality of traces, wherein each of the plurality of ingested spans is associated with a plurality of tags. The method further comprises comparing durations of a set of related traces of the plurality of traces to determine patterns for the plurality of tags and generating a histogram that represents a distribution of the durations of the set of related traces. The method also comprises providing alerts for one or more tags from the plurality of tags associated with traces having a duration above a threshold based on the distribution of the durations.

Abstract: Monitoring and troubleshooting tools provide the capability to visualize different levels of a client's application that is deployed as a suite of independent but cooperating services (e.g., as microservices of a microservices-based architecture), collect values of monitored or tracked metrics at those different levels, and visualize values of the metrics at those levels. For example, metrics values can be generated for teams of the microservices.

Abstract: A method of rendering a service graph responsive to a query comprises generating a plurality of frontend traces and a plurality of backend traces associated with an application or website. The method also comprises determining connection information between one or more frontend traces of the plurality of frontend traces and corresponding backend traces of the plurality of backend traces. Further, the method comprises consolidating the one or more frontend traces with the corresponding backend traces to form one or more end-to-end traces using the connection information. Responsive to the query, the method comprises retrieving a set of exemplary end-to-end traces from the one or more end-to-end traces and rendering a service graph in accordance with constraints applied in the query using the set of exemplary end-to-end traces and the connection information.

Abstract: A method of tracking errors in a system comprising microservices comprises ingesting a plurality of spans generated by the microservices during a given duration of time. The method further comprises consolidating the plurality of spans associated with the given duration of time into a plurality of traces, wherein each trace comprises a subset of the plurality of spans that comprise a common trace identifier. For each trace, the method comprises: a) mapping a respective trace to one or more error stacks computed for the respective trace and to one or more attributes determined for the respective trace; and b) emitting each error stack computed from the respective trace with an associated pair of attributes. The method then comprises reducing duplicate pairs of error stack and associated attributes and maintaining a count for each pair of error stack and associated attributes.

Abstract: A method of performing error analysis in a system comprising microservices comprises identifying a root cause error span from among a plurality of error spans for a trace associated with a user-request, wherein an error span is a span that returns an error to a microservice initiating a call resulting in the span, and wherein a root cause error span is an error span associated with an error originating microservice. The method further comprises determining a call path associated with the root cause error span, where the call path comprises a chain of spans starting at the root cause error span, and where each subsequent span in the chain is a parent span of a prior span. Subsequently the method comprises mapping each span in the chain to a span error frame to create an error stack and rendering an image of the error stack.
