Open Search Datasource Plugin Service Map

Version 2.15.0 of the OpenSearch plugin introduces support for visualizing Service Map for Open Search traces ingested with OpenSearch Data Prepper.

Service map in Grafana enables customers to view a map of their applications built using microservices architecture. With this map, customers can detect performance issues, or increase in error rates in any of their services.

In order to display the map, select Traces query type in the query editor and switch on the Service Map toggle.

Each service in the map is represented by a circle (node). Numbers on the inside show average latency per service and average throughput per minute. Borders around the node represent error and success rates of operations targeting that service. Clicking on any node opens a dialogue with all the metrics in one place
