APM

Last Updated: Mar. 08, 2023

Coralogix now offers features of application performance monitoring (APM) for modern, cloud-native environments. Our new features decorate all pillars of observability with additional information that extends beyond system availability, service performance, and response times.

With this expanded visibility into service performance, you can effectively monitor latency and rapidly find the component responsible for issues like performance degradation or an increase in errors. APM allows you to contextualize and pinpoint the root cause of a problem and respond immediately before the user is affected.

New! Our new Service Map feature provides a full visualization of your system architecture, breaking down your application into all its constituent services and drawing the observed dependencies between these services in real-time on the basis of your distributed tracing.

Concepts

Spans and traces form the basis of application performance monitoring in Coralogix APM.

Using this telemetry data, Coralogix allows you to observe application resource consumption and infrastructure resource consumption using two new observability layers.

PODapplication resource consumptionKey factors that impact response times and throughput of applications
HOSTinfrastructure resource consumptionUsage of IT resources, systems, and processes

Features

Pod & Host

Our APM provides you with all logs relevant to a particular span context, granting a full picture of the services that power your applications.

Use our newest layers of observability – POD and HOST – to:

  • Instantly view all of your pod and host metrics, including resource consumption and associated network information
  • Compare metrics within a specific pod and across pods from a specific service
  • Correlate between Kubernetes spans, logs, and metrics for a specific pod and/or host
  • Troubleshoot log span errors
  • Annotate deployment tags based on span context

Service Map

New! Our new Service Map feature provides a full visualization of your system architecture, breaking down your application into all its constituent services and drawing the observed dependencies between these services in real time on the basis of your distributed tracing.

Use Service Map to:

  • Enjoy a visual representation of your entire system
  • Gain a better understanding of the health of your system by viewing data flows
  • Identify bottlenecks and troubleshoot in real time

Installation & Configuration

Coralogix provides a few alternative scenarios for enjoying our APM features. Documentation related to the configuration and installation for different environments can be found below.

APM on Your Coralogix Dashboard

Pod & Host

1. In your Coralogix dashboard, click on the Explore tab > Tracing. Then click on the trace of interest.

apm choose trace

2. Click on POD and HOST features, in addition to RELATED LOGS and SPAN LOGS. View them in either SPANS VIEW or DEPENDENCIES VIEW.

apm view pod and host

Service Map

The Service Map provides an overview of your services and their health, allowing you to pinpoint bottlenecks between services.

STEP 1. In your Coralogix dashboard, click on Dashboard > APM > Service Map. Then click on the trace of interest.

STEP 2. View a visualization of your traces, organized into clusters. In the left-hand sidebar, filter by LANGUAGE, PROVIDER, ENVIRONMENT, DATABASE, and / or ERROR TYPE.

STEP 3. Hover over a service point to view all of its association information. Search for a service using the search function.

STEP 4. Hover over a service connection to view all of its association information.
