Add business context like tenantId to New Relic APM traces using the agent's request-scoped addCustomAttribute API. Covers worked examples, propagation, cardinality limits, common mistakes, and verification steps.
Running Jaeger with all-in-one memory storage works for demos but fails in production. Learn how to choose OTLP ingestion, durable backends, and sampling before scaling.
Discover how to enable New Relic Distributed Tracing in a Spring Boot app, spot latency hotspots, and understand the overhead costs.
Identify why New Relic transactions stall, locate the bottleneck via distributed tracing, and apply targeted fixes.
A slow invoice endpoint needs more than logs. Use transactions, sampled tracing, and a manual calculate_invoice span to make the waterfall explain business latency.
Dynatrace's OneAgent auto-instruments services and stitches PurePath traces across tiers. Here's how the model works, a reproducible demo, and the trade-off versus OpenTelemetry.
Learn how Jaeger’s probabilistic sampler drops traces at a configured rate, how to set it up, what to watch out for, and how to verify it works.
Fixed sampling wastes storage on healthy traffic while missing rare errors. Jaeger's Adaptive Sampling dynamically adjusts per-operation rates via a collector feedback loop—here's how to configure it, where it breaks, and how to verify it works.
Learn how to get end‑to‑end visibility across microservices with New Relic’s Distributed Tracing. The guide covers automatic header injection, custom span creation, sampling, and common pitfalls such as broken traces in async queues.
