APM and Services
3 min
apm and services is a dedicated area for quickly analyzing application and service performance in terms of requests, errors, latency, and throughput services overview the services overview page lists all instrumented applications and services in a tabular view, making it easy to compare their health at a glance each row represents one service and includes the following details service the name of the application or service requests the total number of requests handled by the service during the selected time range throughput the rate of incoming requests, such as requests per minute, which indicates the overall load on the service p99, p95, and p50 latency latency percentiles that show how long requests take to complete • p99 latency at the 99th percentile, showing worst case performance for most users • p95 latency at the 95th percentile • p50 median latency, representing a typical request error rate the percentage of failed requests, which helps identify unstable services quickly version the reported version of the deployed application or service, which is useful for correlating performance with releases service apm dashboard clicking any service in the services overview opens its apm dashboard, which is a preconfigured view focused on that specific service the dashboard includes requests, errors, and latency over time timeline charts that help identify traffic spikes, error bursts, and latency regressions destinations table a breakdown of downstream dependencies that the service communicates with, including destination name, requests per second, error percentage, and latency metrics between the service and each destination related issues, alarms, and dashboards panels that display existing issues and alarms for the service, along with quick links to additional dashboards for deeper analysis traces and logs from the apm dashboard, you can inspect related traces and logs for a selected service traces table displays recent traces with details such as start time, span name, kind, duration, and an action to view the full trace for end to end request analysis logs table lists recent logs with time, severity, and message, along with actions to explore logs in detail and correlate them with traces and issues for faster root cause investigation
