Tracepaths
To provide a real-time view of the state of all traces being collected, Container Observability discovers the common business flows, called Tracepaths, traversed by the collected traces. The Tracepath provides users with an aggregate view of details of request rates, response times, and errors of all traces using that flow.
By auto-discovering the Tracepaths and calculating their SLOs and metrics, Container Observability makes traces useful for the Operations and SRE teams. This is a unique feature of Container Observability.
Note
To view the Trace Map, see Viewing Maps in Container Observability.
Alerts are created when traces represent anomalies. For more information, see Tracepath-based alert.
