Application Tracing Using DataDog APM

It is very common in today’s date that organizations would like to create cloud-native solutions which are easy to deploy on any cloud platform. While evolving towards a microservices architecture, the biggest change is that the monolith application has been divided into multiple independent processes(or services), as a result, a method call between software modules now becomes a remote procedure call go through multiple services..

Microservices is an architectural style that structures an application as a collection of small autonomous services, modeled around a Business Domain. For each and every component different services are created in order to separate the responsibility

“In Microservice Architecture, each service is self-contained and Implements a single Business capability”

Why APM Tracing?

Let us understand with a simple example. In the above architecture, we have seen multiple microservices. Microservice UI is the front-end Application that…
