AWS X-Ray
Explore how AWS X-Ray provides distributed tracing to visualize and monitor requests across application components. Understand how to identify latency, errors, and bottlenecks in microservices and serverless environments. Learn to use X-Ray’s service maps and trace data for effective debugging and performance optimization.
We'll cover the following...
As modern applications grow in complexity, especially with microservices architecture, monitoring and troubleshooting issues can become increasingly challenging. Developers and operations teams often struggle to identify the root cause of performance bottlenecks, latency spikes, and system failures in distributed environments. Traditional logging and monitoring tools provide insights but often fall short when understanding how different components of an application interact and where issues might arise in the context of those interactions.
AWS X-Ray is a distributed tracing service that helps developers and system administrators analyze and debug applications, particularly those built using a microservices architecture. X-Ray enables us to visualize and track requests as they travel through various components of an application, helping to identify and diagnose performance issues, errors, and bottlenecks.
